*sighs*  Needless to say, I can't be comforted very often or I'd be big as a house.

I never thought I would see that in a post related to some sort of action you are taking... and I am just ribbing you here, please don't take me serious

Fried chicken and fish is another good comfort food.

Macaroni casserole, which I haven't had in about 20 years, is another.

Chef Boyardee Beef Ravioli... In the Can... Cold. (Number one Comfort Food)

Jackass Kay-so-Dill-Yas - Tortills covered in Cheese, Sour Cream, and No Beans Chili.

Viena Sausages - Yeah those things that are supposed to me meat of some kind.

Beef Bologna rolled up stuck with toothpicks and cut into bites.

I am SO easy to comfort.

Mince and Tatties.  My Mom is Scottish and this is a traditional Scottish dish. It was our absolute favorite comfort food as children and still is. Two generations later and my neice still requests it as he birthday dinner.

It sounds yucky when described, but it is delicious. It's browned hamburger simmered in a gravy, and mashed potatoes . My Mom always chopped up carrots and added that to the mince. You put the hamburger < mince > over the potaoes < tatties> and enjoy.

I almost listed this myself! We called it "Slop". My ex knew it as "Hamburg Gravy". Definite comfort food.


I never heard it called that! Ohhhh yeah, that brings back memories!

Status: offline 		I used to have a comfort food I'd forgotten about.  After two times going on Atkins, I lost my craving for it.  Chips Ahoy Choc. Chip Cookies dipped in milk.
 
Oh...I almost forgot one I love now as the season for it here is limited.  Fresh avocado mashed up with a little salt, medium salsa on top, and tortilla chips to scoop it up.  Sometimes sour cream on top if I have that in the house and my son hasn't snarfed it all down.  I don't like those soggy tasting low fat avocados either, and pre-made Sam's guacamole is yucky, lol.
 
Ohhhhhh...when I lived in California, there was a Bob's Big Boy and there was this split chocolate cake with a thick square of vanilla icecream in the middle and hot fudge on top, with whipped cream and a cherry on top.  OMG...I haven't had one in 21 years.  <whimpers>
 
Hostess O's, a powdered doughnut with a circle of raspberry filling inside.  I had one once in the past 21 years, that one time when I visited Ohio and got my hands on one.  I saw them online but the price was nuts.
<must plan trip to Ohio...>

Mmmmmm !  That is one of my faves too. I like to add mushrooms to mine. < I add mushrooms to just about everything > Either way: over rice or potatoes, simply delish.
