“This soup has very little fat, is cheap and easy to make and delicious. Our family practically lives on it in the winter and I usually double the recipe. Sprinkle grated cheddar on top if you wish. If you can’t hang around long enough for this to cook, put it in a slow cooker.”
Breakfast Recipe: Overnight Yeasted Waffles — Recipes from The Kitchn
Whenever I go home to Minnesota to visit my family, there’s one thing that I always request: Grandma’s overnight yeasted waffles. To me, these are the quintessential waffles and all others are held to their standard. They’re crispy on the outside and tender in the middles, but they’re also a touch chewy from the overnight rise with yeast. That same yeast and long rise also give these waffles an unmatchable flavor, particularly when paired with a drizzle of Wisconsin maple syrup or homemade apple butter. Everyone has their favorite waffle recipe — here is mine.

There aren’t many foods that you’ll see in the lunchbox of a kindergartner and on the fanciest hors d’oeuvre platter. But the simple pleasure of pimento cheese is a way of life for many Southerners, appearing everywhere from funeral spreads, to tea party menus, to picnic blankets.

Last week, when the polar vortex, something that ought to be a frozen rum cocktail with an umbrella on top, but is sadly anything but, had begun to descend its icy grasp on all parts of the U.S., I made the best pot of soup of my life.
I realize I said the same — well, I technically called it “the best thing I ate in December” — about last Monday’s soup and that you think I’m being a bit melodramatic and that I need to go to some sort of calm-down-it’s-just-soup rehab for superlative abuse, but you’re only thinking that because you haven’t made this yet. Because while Monday may have been all about the parmesan brodo, by Tuesday night, we were all, “brodo who?” as we dug into bowls of intensely flavored broth with huge tears of succulent chicken and a tangle of rice noodles, topped with everything from scallions to mung bean sprouts, slivers of jalapeno and crispy-fried shallots, basil and cilantro and heady splashes of lime juice, hoisin and garlic-chili sauce that nothing will ever be right without again.

Recipe: Baked Chai Spiced French Toast — Recipes from The Kitchn
I am not a big fan of winter. The lack of sunlight, frigid temperatures and icy roads are just not my thing. During these months I cower in oversized sweaters and wool socks while clinging to hot drinks in chilly desperation.
All that being said, there is something fun about trying to create a cozy, warm atmosphere at home during the winter months. In the end we have to make the most of our situation, right?
