What Is Comfort Food?
Comfort food is not a diet. It was created to help you cook healthy, budget-friendly meals in a little more time than it takes to pop frozen chicken strips and fries into a toaster oven.
It’s all about using fresh, seasonal ingredients and choosing smart filler-free prepackaged foods (while mindfully still enjoying your fave fast foods!).
It’s maximizing flavorful ingredients — all while savoring the food you’re eating, leaving you feeling satisfied and more connected with your meal.
