This week there has finally been a chill in the air in North Carolina. I love this weather, and the fact that we have to wait so long for it here makes it that much sweeter.
We keep our apartment pretty chilly throughout the winter. There’s nothing we love more than bundling up in slippers, sweaters, and cozy blankets, and keeping the heat low keeps our electric bill low. It also makes cozy comfort foods more enjoyable.
If you’re looking for a recipe that will keep you warm in the coming months, here are some of my favorites:
- My mom’s homemade potato soup
- Shephard’s Pie
- Homemade instant cocoa
- Vegetarian chili
- Chicken fajita tortilla soup
- Broccoli Cheddar soup
- Macaroni and cauliflower with cheese
- Turkey meatloaf and mashed potatoes
- Pasta with butternut squash
- Green bean casserole
- Stuffed manicotti (we use spinach instead of beef in this one)
- Chicken and dumplings
- Chicken noodle soup

All of these sound delicious! I love casseroles and hearty dishes for the cold weather.
I just made this butternut squash risotto this weekend and I was really impressed with the recipe. I actually used an acorn squash that I had on hand and it was fine.

Thanks for these recipes… I’m excited to try the shephard’s pie recipe and the homemade instant cocoa among others that sound so good!
