It’s January, time for some comfort food. The weather sure is for something warm and cozy!
I made these beef short ribs tonight and WOW soooo good! Mostly followed the recipe except reduced the wine to a cup and increased the beef broth to 3 (was at the end of a bottle of red wine and didn’t want to open another) Also added some mushrooms and a couple of golden potatoes o wanted to get rid of.
I’ll def be making this again !
H made a stew today as well. He used this recipe, which calls for sirloin tips. Plus, he substituted arrowroot for flour and homemade beef stock for water. It really did hit the spot.
Just noticed the recipe above had you strain the sauce. I didn’t do that - and wouldn’t! We like the chunks of vegetables. My beef short ribs were also boneless.
I made this tonight, husband enjoyed, I’m not much of a sausage fan!
We made spicy salmon tacos. I love short ribs though. This is my fav short rib recipe. It’s so so good.
Love short ribs, can’t decide which recipe to try first!
Edited to add, I would love the salmon taco recipe.
I bet they are similar …
Yes, agree. I am multiply tasking( watching football), just read “short ribs” and I replied!
Cioppino here. With toasted baguette.
Living vicariously tonight – on a new low fat, low salt, high fiber diet…
Just had braised short ribs with marscapone polenta for dinner at a new restaurant last night. And it reminded me of my favorite short rib recipe from the Pioneer Woman served over goat cheese polenta. One of my favorite winter comfort foods.
I’ve also made it with marscapone polenta
Taco soup with chicken. I was freezing and it hit the spot and made me warm. LOL. Totally not fancy stuff.
sorry if this is behind a paywall but it made an excellent dinner tonight. Along with fresh baked pitas, which is my favorite thing to make in the Ooni. Best Turkish Skillet Kebab with Charred Peppers and Tomatoes Recipe - How to Make Turkish Skillet Kebab with Charred Peppers and Tomatoes
We finally dragged our grill back onto the deck after the big rebuild! Haven’t had any grilled food since September! Steaks were our “comfort food” last night. Mr. said those were the best steaks he’s ever had (he definitely forgot the first steaks I made on this grill when we just got it). 
Big pot of minestrone soup here, with plans for lots of variations with the leftovers.
I made broccoli cheese soup last night and made jambalaya for the first time tonight. Both were delicious and perfect for our unusually cold weather in South Texas,
Last night we had meatballs and sauce of pasta. Tonight we switched it up and had it over sliced polenta (from a tube, sautéed in a fry pan). It was a nice change.
We like the convenience of frozen precooked meatballs. But oh so salty. I grew up eating meat sauce (browned ground beef), not meatballs. Does anybody have a good recipe that freezes well?
It’s 16 now and we’re expecting a high of around 30. So, tonight will be albondigas soup with some hatch green chili on the side at add as you wish.
I’m thinking…chili would be good on this very cold and snowy day.
We got snow! 
I was planning on a decidedly non-comfort food dinner (pan-seared salmon with a green salad), but this changes everything 
Now it is going to be black bean and sweet potato chili, with all the fixings. Love snow day food!
