We woke up to a cold morning today. DS was walking around with his fuzzy trapper winter hat on. Inside. 
I'm definitely ready for some fall comfort foods. Especially after last week went off the rails. I found some Low Sodium Campbells condensed tomato soup at a store this weekend. I've never seen that in Walmart or the other big grocery store before so I'm excited to try it! I use condensed tomato soup for a crockpot Porcupine Meatballs recipe that I've been thinking about lately. So I'm hoping to make those tomorrow. Of course it's supposed to be 80 again in a few days. Oh well. My iron is a bit low so I'm going to try adding some beef back into my diet here and there. So it's a good time to try making those again too.
I could also really go for some homemade mac and cheese with stewed tomatoes.
What are your favorite fall comfort foods?
Really I like any kind of stew that can be done in a crockpot. But chili in the crock pot is just SO good. And I can feed us for several dinners with it. Put it over pasta, over a baked potato...eat it with tortilla chips...whatever!
I have a good beef stroganoff recipe that would also hit the spot; but I've not let myself make it in a long time because it's a bit high in sodium and saturated fats.
I can't make that healthier very easy like I can with chili. Same for the mac and cheese. I love turning it into a seafood mac and cheese with crab meat or imitation crab meat and a sprinkle of Old Bay seasoning on top before baking. For lunch; grilled cheese and tomato soup are *chef's kiss* too. And another thing I don't let myself have. How come everything good and tasty needs hot cheese?

, even more. We don't really get anything like cold weather until Winter.
And some of that lush jungle looking foliage. We get a little of everything here so i guess thats ok. 
after my stroke the doctor told my family to go ahead feed me the ramen cook like normal and then dump half the soup out and replace it with water
tastes gross and really bland that way though though i admitt to not knowing exactly what the ratio was they gave to me it could have been ost of it with enough left to color the water added
I mean I wasn’t using the entire packet for my own but it didn’t end up that bland!! I do like the unsalted stocks so i can add my own salt. But when things end up bland its such a disappointment. Sometimes i just add parmasean cheese to up the salt and flavor. 
All other cornbread has been a disappointment since.
