Now, this list contains a lot of comfort foods that I’d never eat, but it is a good list. The one comfort food that seems to be missing is: Meat Lasagna. I absolutely love meat lasagna. I don’t know anybody that dislikes a good meat lasagna. The ingredients are so delicious individually and when combined in a meat lasagna, it’s the ultimate comfort food.

Add a nice salad with some italian dressing and serve with a slice of garlic bread, you’ll be full and happy in no time. The substitutions are endless, too. You can substitute ground beef with ground turkey and you can add more cheese or less depending on what you prefer. You can also add red pepper flakes to give your meat lasagna a nice kick.

The great thing about lasagnas is that you can eat it for lunch the next day and even dinner if you desire and it seems to just get better because the lasagna squares come together and the ingredients combine nicely.

If you are short on time, it is surprisingly easy and quick to make and it looks like you’ve been in the kitchen for hours. Also, with 1 large meat lasagna you can feed a family of 6, easily. And you’ll have plenty to spare for the next day.

So, what are you waiting for? Grab your ingredients and get in the kitchen, immediately!
