the amount of dead animals required for this thread is mad.

Whiskey on the rocks, it’s the only thing I have left

Fresh bread! The warm soft fluffy kind that I can gobble down in seconds. Ice cream is nice, but my lactose intolerance hates it lmfao

Basic microwaved quesadilla. Two flour tortillas, sown sprinkle cheese inside…. Amount dependent on my feelings for the day. Some hot sauce to dip, or salsa. Completely shit, takes a minute-thirty to prepare and heat, and makes me happy 100% of the time.

Maruchan chicken flavor Ramen (it’s carby and full of sodium, I’m sorry).

Doubt I’ll be much help here if you’re worried about carbs. My main comfort food is pasta. Piles of pasta. I like just about any sauce or topping.

Only advice I’ve got is to think back to your childhood and see if you can think of anything that might scratch a nostalgia itch. That usually helps me too.

Eggy in a basket. Many may know of it from V For Vendetta, and as much as I’d like to show off: I saw it on there first as well (all those years ago), but my gosh is it satisfying!

Butter one side of thick-sliced bread, use a small glass to cut a hole in the middle, plop some butter into a pan, put the un-buttered side down and crack an egg into the middle, and once it’s cooked enough flip it for a bit and then serve.
It takes practise to get the timing, of when to flip, right but once you do it’s just buttery and eggy and definitely comforts me well.

Poutine, there’s this place near me that sells 'em with a lot of smoked meat on it. Or grilled cheese + tomato soup if I’ve got the ingredients.

Plain comfort food would usually be something like home made chicken fried rice. That bland, carb, hug with a bit of umami to lift it.

That or any nostalgic food. Stuff my mum used to cook when we were kids (but not some of the stuff we had because it was the 70s!). Like fried egg and chips. We were pretty poor at that stage but two eggs and one large potato per kid was affordable. Cheap and tasty. But my mum was a pretty great cook so she also used to do curries and goulash and paprikash and fish pie and steak and kidney pudding… any these, if cooked just so, are comforting to me.

California rolls, shrimp avocado rolls, salmon avocado rolls, miso soup

Or

Chipotle burrito bowl with chicken, barbacoa, brown rice, black beans, pinto beans, extra fresh tomato salsa, extra red sauce, extra cheese, lettuce, and queso

My partner’s go to is Chicken and Biscut crackers with Canned Cheese

I like the dollar cheeseburgers from McDonald’s that aren’t $1 anymore.

Any sort of shrimp makes me happy. Sounds expensive, but 2lbs. is cheaper than a fast food meal around here.

Easy? Bagel or English muffins with cheese, any sort, and powedered pepper and green onion tops.

Comfort food is supposed to be simple and comforting. Nobody’s comfort food is osso buco on a bed of garlic and chive orzo with white wine braised pearl onions.

Braised lamb shank with red wine and carrots, plus mashed potatoes or egg noodles if you’re OK with some carbs.

I normally love Mac N Cheese but since you’re wanting to cut carbs my second favorite is jalapenos stuffed with cream cheese and wrapped in bacon, best on the grill but good in the oven too.
