Comfort Food Cookbooks - Comfort Food for Company

Comfort Food for Company Meals to share with friends.
Comfort food is nurturing,
wholesome and soul-satisfying.
It cultivates cordiality.

A good meal shared with friends is one of life’s greatest pleasures. This book is designed to enhance that pleasure by helping to make “having company” a fuss-free experience. Most of the recipes in this book can be prepared ahead and reheated; many are cooked in one large pot; some cook in the oven for several hours with little attention; almost all can be halved or doubled to meet your needs. We’ve included menus to get you started. Enjoy!
