The holiday hubbub is done and, fun as it was, it is nice to slow down now and breath a little.

What could be better than to do that with some hearty comfort food? Make a meal like Mama would make… good ol’ fashioned Meatloff with a side of creamy mashed potatoes and silky gravy. Or what about Salisbury Steaks with Sweet French Onion Gravy? Don’t forget the crusty bread to sop up the delicious gravy!

Carbs sound good? Spaghetti alla Carbonara or a tangy Pasta with Tomato Cream Sauce should make you a happy camper.

But then again, who can resist a Double-Crust Chicken Pot Pie or Classic Chicken and Dumplings?

Maybe soup is what soothes your soul (say that 5 times fast!).. creamy, dreamy Baked Potato Soup or cheesy, please-y Broccoli Cheese Soup are soup-er ideas for a cold Sunday afternoon. Or while you watch the game, make a big batch of Vegetarian Chili with Winter Vegetables or Turkey Chili and invite the gang to join you!
