  5. Perfect Chicken Alfredo. Oh, chicken alfredo: It’s the classic pasta we just can’t seem to get enough of. Of course, there are tons of jarred pasta sauces you can buy, but making alfredo from-scratch is actually so easy. This is a great base recipe for all your one-pot pasta needs. Consider the following revisions when you feel like mixing it up.
  6. Shrimp Fettuccine Alfredo. Fettuccine alfredo is one of life’s greatest comfort foods. It’s creamy, cheesy, carby, and super flavorful. We especially love this version because the shrimp adds lots of extra flavors and some lean protein to boot! Make sure to avoid the common mistakes listed below and you’ll master this dish in no time.
  7. Wine braised short ribs and creamy white cheddar mashed potatoes. These tender wine braised short ribs are the best cold-weather comfort food. Beef short ribs braised in a dutch oven and served over creamy mashed potatoes with white cheddar cheese!
  8. Slow cooker beef goulash. With fall-apart beef, tomatoes, and peppers in a creamy, rich stew, our slow cooker goulash recipe couldn’t be easier or more comforting.
