    23 Vegetarian Comfort Food Recipes

    When people think about Comfort food, they often imagine dishes that aren’t very good for you.  This is certainly true in many cases.  And it really stinks if you have a list of foods that you can’t eat.  Many people are vegetarians or vegans, or they are eating Whole 30 or Keto.  But, did you know that you can tweak many comfort food recipes to fit with your specific diet?  For instance, here is a list of 25 Healthy Comfort Food Recipes!

    Here at Bubba Pie, we thought that we’d expand our list to focus on Vegetarian Comfort Food Recipes.  We have also included some Vegan Comfort Food Recipes in here too! So now, no matter what your dietary situation is, we hope that you can find a yummy dish that gives you comfort and that you really enjoy eating.

        I am not familiar with the Keto diet at this time but I am noticing a lot of people are going Keto. I will need to do some research and learn more!

      I love that you mentioned that the flavor of chicken buffalo sauce can still be captured in vegetarian food recipes. I’ve been thinking about switching up my diet soon because I’ve gained a lot of fat from staying home too much since last year. Altering my diet to accommodate the lack of physical activity in my daily life will help me regulate my body fat a lot easier.
