6 comfort food recipes that will soothe your mind, body and soul

What's new

What is it that makes a recipe comforting? Is it the happy memories of something you used to eat when you were young? Or is it that self-induced food coma after eating a few bites too many of a heavy dish? Comfort food seems to be any type of food that makes a person feel better, but as we all know, it’s mostly associated with the type of dishes that aren’t particularly good for you.

Well, that’s about to change. We’re going to prove that theory wrong with this list of tasty vegetarian and vegan recipes that will sooth your mind, as well as your body.

VEGETARIAN SHEPHERD'S PIE
