While we are all coping with COVID, naturally many of us are turning to comfort foods. I'm curious: what are your go-to feel-good comfort foods?

    I'm discovering it's ice cream lol. If you would've asked me before March, I probably would've said something else because ice cream actually isn't my favorite dessert.

    I find comfort in baking, so I guess anything I can bake has been comfort food. It's really been a struggle not to bake all the time with the whole stay at home thing and calories. :/ Also wine and ice cream for sure!

    Same. Right now my go to is ice cream. In a couple months it will probably be something different. I am thinking about trying a couple yogurt bark recipes, it looks like a delicious frozen treat.

    My feel good foods are lean meat and fish and vegetables and fruit.
    My looking for comfort foods are chocolate cake and ice cream.

    My "feel good" foods are meat, full-fat dairy and vegetables. Comfort food... brownies, enchiladas and lasagana!

    I'd say my feel-good food on a good day is a hearty bowl of chicken noodle soup. On a hot day, sweetened greek yogurt.

    Now, on a day where I just need comfort, definitely macaroni and cheese and moosetracks ice cream.

    Cabbage rolls, stuffed zucchini, grape leaf rolls. Thankfully all of them are time consuming to prepare, so we don't make them too often. Foods I have overeaten because everyone in the house has a sudden urge to make is baked goods.

    another one of mine: milktoast!

    and I'm not typically a big cereal person, but a huge bowl of cereal with ice-cold milk is so nostalgic.
