There are certain foods that go so well with cold, snowy weather -- think hearty soups, mac n’ cheese, and sandwiches that heat up your belly.

There's a reason we call them comfort foods: they offer solace from the raw, frigid winter blasts.

And when it’s snowing and freezing outside and it’s time to decide what to eat, it might be hard to motivate you to get out and about -- maybe you’ll opt for the old packet of ramen just so you don’t have to make a grocery run. But if you do brave the weather, these warm and delicious meals will be waiting for you as a reward.
