Comfort food is typically dense and filling, warming us up on the inside. This colorful collection of dishes blends creamy, succulent, and tender textures infused with rich flavors and buttery tones. Spicy seasonal sesame squash and creamy citrus greens are the perfect sides to the Italian inspired baked avocado with salsa.
