Cozy Comfort Food Recipes

These easy, cozy recipes will wrap you up like a warm hug–ENJOY!

SAUSAGE & TORTELLINI SOUP
1 Tbsp. olive oil
1 lb. mild Italian sausage
1 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
32 oz. chicken broth
28 oz. can crushed tomatoes
2 tsp. dried Italian seasoning
1 bag frozen spinach
1 family size package cheese tortellini
Parmesan cheese for garnish

Add the olive oil to a large pot over about medium heat. Brown the sausage with the onions. Add the garlic. Cover with the chicken broth and crushed tomatoes. Season with Italian seasoning. Stir to combine. Reduce heat and simmer for about 20 minutes. Add the spinach and tortellini. Cook for about 5 more minutes until spinach has heated through and pasta is cooked (the tortellini will rise to the top when they are ready).
Garnish with parmesan cheese if desired.

PASTINA
1 lb. Acini di pepe pasta (pastina)
3 beaten eggs
milk (probably about a cup, but I eyeball this ingredient)
1/2 stick butter, cut into several slices
salt

Boil and drain pasta according to package directions. Return to stove over low heat. Cover the pasta with milk and stir. Add in the beaten eggs and continue to stir for a couple of minutes until thickened and creamy. Add in the butter slices and stir to combine. Season to taste with salt and stir until everything is incorporated.

SHORTCUT SHEPHERD’S PIE
2 lbs ground beef
2 cans tomato soup
1 can carrots, drained
1 can French style green beans, drained
salt & pepper
2 pkg. prepared mashed potatoes
shredded sharp cheddar cheese

Preheat oven to 350*. Brown the ground beef in a skillet. Drain the fat. Put the meat into a 13x9in casserole dish. Mix in the tomato soup plus about half a can of water. Add the carrots and beans. Season with salt & pepper and stir everything together. Spread the mashed potatoes overtop. Sprinkle a generous amount of shredded cheddar on top. Bake at 350* for about 30 minutes or until cheese is melted and bubbling.
