February is the time of comfort food. The holidays are over and your weekends are free of football. It's the perfect time to get into the routine of eating homemade dinners, and we have the perfect cozy dinners to complement your family time. The following simple and quick comfort-food recipes will help keep your family warm through the winter.
Remember when you were a kid, and after a hard day of playing in the snow, you'd come in to find a bowl of tomato soup waiting to warm you up? For those chilly nights that remind you of those days, try Creamy Tomato Potato Soup. Made in the Crock-Pot®, it only has 5 minutes of prep time before it cooks all day and is ready to enjoy at dinner. Pair it with Grilled Cheese and Pear Sandwiches (ready in just 10 minutes) for the ultimate cozy winter dinner.
Another dish that's sure to remind you of Mom is meatloaf, paired with potatoes, of course. Some meatloaves can take upward of an hour to prepare, but not all. Our Meatloaf in Minutes is ready in just minutes—30 of them to be exact, while our Cheesy Mini Meatloaves are ready in just 40 minutes. Looking for the perfect potato recipe to round out the meal? Try our Garlic Mashed Potatoes (just 10 minutes of hands-on time).
Casseroles are great because they are usually relatively easy to prepare, and everything is right there in one dish! Our Turkey and Rice Casserole combines all major food groups into one dish—and it's ready in 35 minutes! While our Baked Ziti Casserole features layers of pasta, meat sauce, and mozzarella cheese for a casserole the whole family is sure to enjoy. Pair it with a fresh salad or some bread and you've got a meal.
