Mix It Up With Jenny - Bring Comfort to the Table (Family Features) Just before the start of spring, there are those last chilly nights of winter that call for foods that warm the body and the soul. And that's the very definition of comfort food. Here are some of my favorite ways to bring some comfort to the table and smiles to the faces of those around it:
  • A make-ahead casserole - I like to put together a hearty one-dish meal that makes enough for leftovers on another night
  • Homemade hot cocoa mix - Keeping a container of homemade mix ready lets me make a cozy cup of cocoa to warm things up after school or any time at all
  • Quick loaves - Waking up to the smell of baking lemon bread, banana bread or pumpkin bread makes the day better already
  • Soups and chowders - I like to make a big batch so there's some for supper and plenty left over to send some to school for a good, hot lunch
In this All-Star Potato, Bacon and Corn Chowder, potato flakes bring familiar flavor and act as a thickener. Sunny yellow corn and crispy bacon really brighten up the taste, and evaporated milk makes it extra creamy and super comforting.
