What’s your go-to comfort meal?

[ColourfulOnesie]

Feeling a bit rubbish on all fronts atm but I’ve just finished a bowl of soup with a cheese toastie to dip in and now I feel like I’ve been hugged

What’s your go to comfort meal when you feel a bit rubbish?
Mine strangely all seem to include toast

A crumpet with butter, marmite and a slice of Cornish cove cheddar or Red Leicester cheese.

I love this thread, it's brought back so many memories, all of them lovely.
Mine has to be dairylea and sweetcorn sandwiches put in the microwave until the bread is warm and floppy and the dairylea squishy. 'Tis food of the Gods!

Jacket potato with cheese and coleslaw
Grilled cheese sandwich

Not in the same meal, obviously.

Oven chips with Hellmans Mayo.

Macaroni cheese would be my favourite, but as it's not particularly quick to make, and DP's not so keen on it, I don't have it often. Planning to cook it one night next week when she's away.

Spaghetti Carbonara, easy and cheap and feels like a 'posh meal'

Spaghetti, bacon, mushrooms, an egg, milk (or cream if you're flush) cheese which doesn't have to be parmesan, any cheaper cheese is fine)

Having it tomorrow night :-)

Also fish pie. The J.O one that is super quick with no white sauce.

Macaroni cheese here too.
For something really simple, bachelors pasta n sauce in a white bread sandwich.

A bowl of semolina with a teaspoon of raspberry jam.

A massive salad

An obscenely large pile of pierogi mięsem (beautiful little polish dumplings filled with seasoned meat) and a pile of cheesy, oniony mash. Heaven that will always remind my of my Nana! Like a cuddle on a plate

My mum’s macaroni cheese, or creamy mashed potato in a bowl surrounded by heinz tomato soup. Like a potato island in a sea of soup!

Snack would be Jam and butter on white bread toast
Meal- probably beef stew in slow cooker with carrots, parsnips, swede, onions etc and herby/cheese dumplings

Mine is hot, buttered toast. When I was 7 we read The Wind in the Willows' at school. When Mr. Toad was in jail the jailer's daughter took pity on him and brought him hot, sweet tea and hot , buttered toast with the butter melting and forming golden circles on the plate beneath. It was wartime with butter rationing and I couldn't visualise how wonderful that must be.

Beans on toast with plenty of grated cheese
Cauliflower cheese with tuna

Spaghetti Bolognese, every time

Mac&cheese

Eggy bread (French toast) topped with strawberry jam

Bangers & Mash with onions and gravy.
Reminds me of childhood.

Haven't had it ages.

Scotch egg , baked beans , chips and grated cheese .

Shepherd’s/cottage pie.

Jacket potatoes with either tuna mayo, or with beans and cheese.
I think I'll come back to this thread tomorrow and do some meal planning

Aunt Bessie’s Yorkshire puddings with a splash of gravy.

Sausages, baked potato with lashings of butter and Heinz baked beans!

Cottage pie with chips and tinned peas.
