Comfort Food Cravings

We just got back from another trip to Idaho, this time to pack my mom up and move her closer to my older sister. It was an exhausting and emotional weekend–hard to say goodbye to the house she and my dad shared for the last 20 years, but we are so happy she will be closer to family now.

Since it’s election day here in the United States, I decided to gather together some of my most recent comfort food cravings. I hope you find a recipe (or two) that your family will enjoy. I’ll be back to cooking tomorrow.
