Comfort food is a regular occurrence around our home.  We love to come together to enjoy a warm and hearty meal after a long day’s work.  I am not ready to give up the warm summer weather yet but I am ready for some comfort food. I am just about done with grilled food. -ha. I love the Fall season and cooking meals in the crockpot.  Today I’m sharing some recipes that have been in our family for a long time and I know you will love them just as much as we do!  They are all easy to make and there are a few slow cooker recipes thrown in so you can fix it and go about your day, then come home to a warm meal.

Let’s see those comfort food recipes…

My husband is Sicilian and he loves a good o’l fashioned Italian dinner from time to time. This is a quick version of a super simple manicotti recipe.  There is even a video included!

You have to try this easy and delicious slow cooker recipe that you can serve as a meal or serve as a dip with sour cream and tortilla chips. This Mexican Crock Pot Casserole will become one of your go-to recipes!

This recipe for Bacon Cheeseburger Shepherds Pie takes our classic recipe and adds a fun twist. It is to die for!

This is a family favorite at our home. Thick and tender pork chops with apples.  I’m also sharing my secret to keeping the chops so very tender.

This hamburger casserole is a hit with my son.  He doesn’t usually like his food mixed together, but he loves this particular recipe… we all do!

Chili recipes are all over the place, but this is our favorite and includes our special secret ingredient!

This recipe for baked lasagna is so easy, you won’t believe it. You can even sub chicken or seafood.

Speaking of thirty minute recipes, this is the easiest (and most delicious) shepherds pie you’ll ever make. It is one of our most-pinned recipes, too !

Skip the freezer section ready made pies and make your own chicken pot pie. This recipe is sure to please.

I have a cuisinart crock-pot (KITCHENAID KSC6223 6 QT. SLOW COOKER) that I absolutely love. It’s affordable and reliable.

 I hope you’ve found something to cook for those chilly days ahead.  I am ready for that delicious comfort food, but not all of the snow that comes with it.  Enjoy!
