Things have come full circle for this week's college comfort food: all the way back to the booklet of recipes my Aunt Mish gave me when I first went off to college. After all, is there anything more comforting than an old-fashioned meatloaf?
Read MoreStephanie has previously brought us hearty recipes like Mac and Cheese Quinoa and Pepper Jack and Butternut Squash Risotto. Enjoy!
Read MoreThe last Sunday Dinner featured one adaption of a simple enchiladas recipe. This second variety is a creamy adaptation, also brought to you by the inestimable comfort food cooking duo, Christine and Big John.
Serve with extra cheese for extra deliciousness.

Read MoreToday's recipe is again brought to you by the inestimable Aunt Mish, who has supplied many of my favorite pre-meal munchies for family occasions going back as long as I can remember. This Kahlua and pecan brie recipe is as easy as they come, and would make an impressive offering for a potluck meal or an evening get-together with friends. It's one of those perfect recipes that looks impressive without being too complicated--perfect for a reluctant cook like me.
Read MoreThis is another recipe from Christine and Big John--a lovely couple who hosted me for a week of adventures in Seattle during my Junior year. John taught me to make chicken and dumplings, and this recipe has been one of my absolute favorite go-to meals since then.
Read MoreWhen I discovered quinoa my whole culinary life turned around. This recipe from Stephanie looks absolutely fabulous, plus we can look forward to more deliciousness from this baking enthusiast college friend. Enjoy!
Read MoreThis recipe comes from PeaceMeals, a program which seeks to build authentic communities of support – often in the aftermath of trauma, conflict, or simply tough life situations and stress – in the kitchen and around the dinner table. There is a twist, however: each meal is nutritionally-tailored to help address certain symptoms including depression, anxiety, and fatigue.
Read MoreToday's college comfort food recipe is brought to you once again by the inestimable Aunt Mish, who has supplied so many of the My College Advice recipes thus far. I can't wait to try this particular dish! If you beat me to it, please let me know what you think.
Read MoreI have on several occasions been welcomed into the homes of near-strangers: friends of friends around the US and further afield as well. In that vein, someday soon I'll write a post about how I came to know Christine and Big John (plus their cat, Dewey), as well as their broader community of people loving life and looking after one another in the Pacific Northwest. Today's mission is a comfort food recipe, and Chris and John came through with style! This minestrone soup is simple and delicious, and will last for days for delicious leftover meals.
Read MoreToday's recipe is among my favorites. I'm calling them "garbage muffins" in the most admiring sense possible: they are made with a "what I have to hand" attitude of multiple substitutions and many flavor combinations. I love these because they are delicious, healthy, and ever-changing.
Read MoreToday's Sunday Dinner is again brought to you by my Aunt Mish and her "College Comfort Food" recipe book. I hope you'll enjoy this simple and delicious meal!
