Soups and Stews are good.:smile:

I love some hot chocolate when it's cold outside too.:love:

And weirdly, ice cream.:hmmmm:

Hot chocolate you've made or from a cafe? Cream and marshmallows? :love:

I totally get that, it's weird as it's cold but so good. Although it would be made better by warm brownie and ice cream :yum:

Not at all and you can use any vegetables, nowadays I use cooked chicken I find from the supermarket.

First I saute the chicken (if using cooked you can avoid this), take the chicken out and put in onions (garlic if wanted) until brownish. Add the chicken and vegetables and some kind of liquid, cook under pressure for 15 mins. When done, add noodles and put back under pressure for 3-5 mins. Everything is done in the one pot is the great thing about Pressure Cookers!

All kinds of soups. Hot meals. Not really a fan of eating cold food during winter months. Oh and also hot beverages

Slow cooker meals! Either my vegan sausage casserole or curry. Both so good!

I love dipping chocolate in tea so it melts, is that weird?

A roast dinner is probably my favourite ever meal but even better in winter!

I totally agree about roast dinner being the best meal ever.
I dont personally dip chocolate in tea, but whatever floats your boat. It doesnt seem that weird to me.
