Does anyone have any suggestions for what recipe/recipes to use with this type of show? I am thinking comfort type food but have come against a mental block. Any suggestions would be very helpful.

TIA
Sherri
 
I have a consultant who is making the Lazy Lasagna Chili from our Soups,Stews,and Chilis Recipe cards. He's also bringing bringing a loaf of our beer bread. He says both are a big hit.

Thanks. I just got the recipe cards and forgot to look there. Those are great ideas!
 
I did a party similar to this theme but prepared Spring/Summer foods. We had spring pasta stir-fry (All the Best) and a dessert. You could also mix some summery drinks in the quick stir. For me, beating the winter blues is thinking that summer is just around the corner! :)
 
The Cheesy Chicken Tortellini Bake in the Stoneware Inspirations is an interest twist to comfort food.
