When that groundhog saw his shadow and I found out there were six more weeks of winter, a few choice words went through my mind. Not sure about you, but I’m over winter. In my part of the country, we spent January in sub-zero temps and February hasn’t jumped back to normal. It’s at this point in winter when all I crave is comfort food. <\/p>\n

Chicken pot pie is one of my favorite dishes. With a flaky, buttery crust and creamy filling, it’s so satisfying. Adriana Torres’<\/a> (El Paso, TX) <\/a>Chicken Pot Pie Muffins<\/a> are great because it’s everything you love about chicken pot pie, but in bite-size form.<\/p>\n

“I made individual chicken pot pies with every intention to eat a single serving,” shares Adriana. “However, after one taste of the delicious crumble topping, I couldn\u2019t resist having seconds.” I definitely went back for seconds… actually thirds.<\/p>\n

As a child, I adored grilled cheese sandwiches. Melted American cheese sandwiched between buttered white bread, oh my. Just thinking about it puts a smile on my face. As an adult, my taste buds may have become a bit more sophisticated, but my love for grilled cheese hasn’t changed. Rhonda E.’s<\/a> (Juneau, AK<\/a>) The Ultimate Grilled Cheese<\/a> is a deliciously adult cheesy grilled cheese.<\/p>\n

“I got this idea from ingredients that go good in a salad and I just put them in a sandwich instead,” reveals Rhonda. This grilled cheese is something you would expect at a fancy deli. The garlic mayo packs a punch of flavor and crisps the bread up beautifully. The Gouda melts wonderfully and it pairs perfectly with the salty bacon, spinach, and softened onion. Every bite is a gooey bit of flavor!<\/p>\n

The more cheese you can fit in your mac and cheese, the better in my mind. True to form, Samantha Jacobs’<\/a> (Manchester, NH<\/a>) Ooey Gooey Mac and Cheese<\/a> is one stellar recipe. “This baked mac and cheese is so creamy and delicious,” shares Samantha. “There are never any leftovers when I make this dish.”<\/p>\n

Nicky Iser<\/a> (Falling Waters, WV<\/a>) has been making this recipe for years and thinks, “This is one of the best recipes on Just A Pinch. No matter how many times I have made it, I never ever make it the same way twice.” Get creative and switch up the cheese. Put it under the broiler, too, like Samantha suggests to get that crispy cheesy top.<\/p>\n

“This meatloaf is so full of flavor,” explains Barbara Oseland<\/a> (Two Harbors, MN<\/a>) of her Bacon Wrapped BBQ Meatloaf Stuffed with Cheese<\/a>. “It’s the perfect size for two people… plus leftovers for one more meal.” There are so many layers of goodness in this meatloaf and full of flavor. <\/p>\n

Really, anything wrapped in bacon is just on a whole other level. The cheese in the middle is an ooey, gooey surprise. Double the recipe if you’re serving more than two. After one bite I am not sure your family will ever want another meatloaf recipe again.<\/p>\n

Chocolate will cure any ailment, right?! One bite of Joan Penney’s<\/a> (Platte City, MO<\/a>) Chocolate Pie<\/a> will send your taste buds to their happy place. When describing the pie Joan says, “There is a rich buttery taste and a slight crunch to the top.” Oh, it’s so good!<\/p>\n

Not only was this super easy to make it was also super delicious. The top has a slight crunch and the inside is soft and creamy. Eat it with a dollop of whipped cream slightly warm or cold from the fridge. You can not go wrong with this lovely chocolate pie recipe.<\/p>\n

Comfort food makes me happy and will hopefully pull me through to spring (March 20th can’t get here soon enough!). What’s your favorite comfort food? Share below and Happy Pinching!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
