Cold Weather Foods

The crock pot comes out when the cold weather sets in...

Frito Chili Pie. It's a cold weather, comfort food for me. It reminds me of my mom. Even though the fritos are high carb and I limit them (I'm diabetic) I do throw a handful in a bowl of chili every so often and toss in a little cheese and have a quick version of this. My mom's was baked in the oven, but I never take the time to do that.

Cold weather = crock pot meals here too. My favorite would be chill, followed by beef stew, with chicken and potatoes with mushroom gravy coming in next. Hot drinks would be coffee (which I don't normally drink), and hot chocolate. It's not so much the drink that I like, but I love to wrap my cold hands around a mug filled with a steaming hot drink.

I love homemade soups, and crock pot meals also. Stews, chilli, chicken and potatoes with mushroom sauce (recipe that I got from Pom) . Also love Lasagna and Shepherd's pie.

Soups and stews I love to have when it is really cold. I make chili and also I make something I call hamburger soup. I just saute onion, garlic, carrots and celery, add hamburger and brown that and then add beef stock. It is simple and comforting to me.
