There’s a particular kind of week where the sky doesn’t clear and all you want is something warm, a little heavy, and ready by the time you’ve changed out of wet shoes. Here’s what we reach for.
Start with the slow cooker — it does the work while you do anything else. Our Slow Cooker Beef Stew is exactly what rain calls for: rich, thick, and better the longer it sits. On a meatless night, the Slow Cooker Black Bean Chili does the same job, piled with whatever toppings you like.
If you’d rather have something on the stove in half an hour, a bowl of Thai Coconut Curry Soup or a pot of Italian Wedding Soup will do it — both are the kind of soup that feels like a proper meal, not a starter.
And when you want something that tastes like it took real effort but really didn’t, our Roasted Tomato & Basil Soup alongside a pan of Stovetop Mac and Cheese is about as comforting as dinner gets.
Pour yourself a Masala Chai Latte while it all simmers, and let the rain do whatever it wants outside.
