Work is super stressful right now and I could use some comfort food ideas. Especially since mine tend to involve carbs but I think carbs are making me bloat in a way they didn’t when I was 20. (Aside: getting older sucks.) Never been a fan of ice cream either.
Mine are typically mashed potatoes, or potatoes generally, and plain bean and rice burritos, cheese optional. My husband thinks I’m crazy because it’s all so plain but when I’m sick or stressed and my stomach is upset, that’s what I want.

I totally agree with you. I am all about those bean burritos. French fries. I will often enjoy mac n cheese, buldak, pizza, biryani, and chicken tikka masala. Not at the same time, though.
I chop up a potato and throw it in a bowl with water and microwave it for 10 min. Then, I fry them in a pan with either butter or olive oil. When they’re almost done, I crack open 2 eggs on top and mix it all together.
Top with ketchup. So good.
Whiskey on the rocks, it’s the only thing I have left
I get a cooked chicken from the grocery store and a bunch of dinner rolls. Then I eat the rolls with butter and big bites of chicken.
I do this every week but with a fresh baguette … Don’t cook on grocery day.
Fresh bread! The warm soft fluffy kind that I can gobble down in seconds. Ice cream is nice, but my lactose intolerance hates it lmfao
I’m in the USA and my local grocer makes bagettues throughout the day. It’s amazing to get a warm loaf fresh out of the oven at 7pm.
I know the local grocery store only makes bread in the mornings, so fresh fluffy bread at night is on me to make, alas!
the amount of dead animals required for this thread is mad.
They’re already dead and processed, would be an insult to not consume them.
And dead plants too
🤡
Pizza, it’s always pizza.
Just had one
Maybe for dinner tonight…
Pizza is unfortunatly my go to depression food 😅
Well stop eating it if it makes you depressed
Collard greens and bacon.
This is a perfect recipe, but I just fry up some bacon instead of using a turkey leg (though I’m sure that would be great too).
Tangerines, sweet, easy to peel, healthy and you dont have to cook.
The poor things
Eggy in a basket. Many may know of it from V For Vendetta, and as much as I’d like to show off: I saw it on there first as well (all those years ago), but my gosh is it satisfying!
Butter one side of thick-sliced bread, use a small glass to cut a hole in the middle, plop some butter into a pan, put the un-buttered side down and crack an egg into the middle, and once it’s cooked enough flip it for a bit and then serve.
It takes practise to get the timing, of when to flip, right but once you do it’s just buttery and eggy and definitely comforts me well.I normally love Mac N Cheese but since you’re wanting to cut carbs my second favorite is jalapenos stuffed with cream cheese and wrapped in bacon, best on the grill but good in the oven too.
Oooh heartburn be damned, that does sound good!
Basic microwaved quesadilla. Two flour tortillas, sown sprinkle cheese inside…. Amount dependent on my feelings for the day. Some hot sauce to dip, or salsa. Completely shit, takes a minute-thirty to prepare and heat, and makes me happy 100% of the time.
Flour tortillas and Kraft singles. That was the extent of my mom’s cooking
Poutine, there’s this place near me that sells 'em with a lot of smoked meat on it. Or grilled cheese + tomato soup if I’ve got the ingredients.
This is such a weird food item. I never heard of it until I visited Iran
Canada? As if my American ass wasn’t envious enough of you Canadians!
We have chili cheese fries
Homemade pasta sauce made from ground beef and pork, in the style of a Bolognese / Pörkölt crossover.
So haram
