5 Healthy comfort food recipes for home cookin'
Sometimes a granola bar just doesn't do the trick like a bowl full of macaroni and cheese. Comfort foods have a place in healthy lifestyles too, it just takes a little variation to make them stand out! If you're a culinary enthusiast or just interested in making your own healthy snack, take a look at these 5 healthy comfort food recipes that anyone can try in his or her own kitchen.The best part is that these servings are less than 250 calories, so they can make for a great meal alternative or mid-day snack. My favorite has got to be the baked chicken nuggets. Instead of using bread crumbs to produce that desired texture, you can try coating them with crushed Cornflakes. This gives the simulation of batter, and there is no need for frying.
Of course it's hard to talk about comfort food without mentioning chili. Vegetable chili may sound like a knock-off version of the meaty real thing, but it would be very easy to adapt this healthy recipe using turkey. Either way, if you can blend, chop or heat things up these recipes are not too difficult to pull off. Do you have any personal favorites when it comes to comfort food?
