On a chilly winter day, there is nothing more pleasant than a hot dinner. Do you want to know how to warm up your kitchen and your stomach? So, get out your pots and pans and try one of these dishes. Almost all of these meals are inexpensive and family-friendly, and the majority of them are suitable for any night of the week.
Plan ahead of time and include some of these foods in your weekly supper menu.
Decadent Mac and Cheese
It turns out that mac and cheese does not come in one size fits all—there are several varieties. There’s the creamy traditional type, the kind of mac and cheese that spreads out on a dish when you drop it. There’s also Southern-style mac and cheese, which is more akin to a casserole. It’s thicker and denser, and it can be sliced into squares.
Polenta Bake With Shrimp
This Southern-inspired adult comfort cuisine is prepared in a single pan. This dish will be appreciated by the entire family because it is quick and easy to prepare on a weeknight. The polenta is richly flavoured with Parmesan cheese and whole milk ricotta, and the tail-on shrimp are covered in butter and paprika.
Grilled Cheese
No winter day is complete without some old-fashioned comfort food, and nothing screams comfort like carbohydrates and cheese. Making a version that’s golden-brown and crisp on the exterior while remaining ooey-gooey on the inside isn’t as simple as it appears. To get started, you just need a few cupboard staples—white bread, cheddar cheese, and butter—but a few basic strategies will produce the finest sandwich imaginable.
Cabbage Rolls
This meal is usually a crowd pleaser. With mashed potatoes, serve these cabbage rolls.
After a few hours in the freezer, the cabbage leaves will be ready to stuff—no boiling necessary.
