Peanut Butter & Jelly Sandwiches
Soft bread, ooey-gooey peanut butter and your choice of jelly. Does it get any better than this?

Beef Stew
When it's a cold winter night, it's hard to beat a bowl of thick, hearty beef stew with all the fixin's.

Pot Roast
Toss it in the slow cooker with some potatoes and carrots on the way out your door, and you'll come home to one of the best comfort meals you'll ever make.
