30 People Share Their Favorite Low-Effort Comfort Meals That Require 3 Ingredients Or Less
Interview
We all know that the world isn’t all sunshine and rainbows—at some point, things get a bit too much for us and we start feeling overwhelmed. Maybe you’re burned out at work or stressed because of some relationship trouble. Perhaps you’ve had a major setback when it comes to your beloved creative projects. Many of us deal with this by snuggling under a cozy blanket, putting on a nostalgic TV show, and eating something tasty.
There’s nothing quite like comfort food to pick up your mood and make you see the bright side of things! Internet users revealed the quick and easy comfort meals they love making whenever they’re feeling blue in a thread on r/Cooking, and we’ve collected their best ideas. We know we’ll be trying a few of these instead of reaching for that pint of ice cream the next time we’re down.
Bored Panda reached out to the author of the thread, u/actuallyboa, who opened up about how food is both a form of art and love for them. We also got in touch with Andrea Bonior, Ph.D., the host of the mental health advice podcast ‘Baggage Check’ and the bestselling author of ‘Detox Your Thoughts,' to better understand why we find food so comforting and why moderation and mindful eating are so important. Read on for both of our interviews.

A classic grilled cheese sandwich made with sourdough bread, sharp cheddar, and Kerrygold salted butter.
Grilled low and slow for maximum crunch. The roof of your mouth will heal.
Dr. Bonior, the host of the 'Baggage Check' podcast, explained to Bored Panda that food experiences have strong associations with memories, "not only because our senses are involved but because they become traditions that are conditioned to make us feel a certain way because of the context of how we shared the food in the past." Our sense of smell, particularly, is very closely connected to our emotional memories.
"Many times we might associate certain meals with a certain loved one, or feeling safe and taken care of during childhood, or having a leisurely day of something being cooked or baked. Also, tasty food improves our mood almost instantaneously—not only satisfying the physical aspect of hunger but bringing pleasure," she said.
A tomato sandwich. All you need is tomato, mayonnaise, and sliced bread. I have this most summer days when fresh local tomatoes are at their peak. It's probably the meal I eat most often.
I love to cut up a carrot or two and throw them in a foil packet with some olive oil and ginger. Salt to taste, seal up the packet and bake until you can smell it. Usually 20-30 minutes but I’ve left them for 45 before and they just get more caramelized. They end up sweet and savory and I can eat a whole bowl of it with nothing else added. Maybe some fresh ground pepper but not always. The ginger adds a great *something* to it.
Bored Panda was also interested to learn more about having a healthy relationship with comfort food so that we don't overeat every time we're stressed. "I think it's important not to be all-or-none. No food is inherently 'bad' in moderation (unless it's poison!) So, if you think that a particular comfort food isn't necessarily the healthiest, why not try a smaller portion and pair it with something else that is more healthful, or substitute just one aspect of it for something healthier," Dr. Bonior gave some spot-on advice.
For instance, one thing that you could do is make mac n cheese with whole wheat noodles. Or bake a delicious chocolate cake with a bit less sugar. Something else that can help us get more from the comfort food experience, according to Dr. Bonior, is slowing down and eating more mindfully, "really pausing while we eat to truly take in how the food looks, how it smells, and to chew it slowly to notice the taste."
Moreover, serving the comfort food in a "particularly pretty way" can make the entire experience more of a ritual that's focused on relaxation and taking a break from all the stress and problems in your life. "By slowing it down and making it an event that you embrace, you'll enjoy it more, feel less guilty about it later, and actually be less likely to let it turn into a binge that you try to shame yourself for later."
A toasted slice of a crusty Italian bread dipped in good, flavored olive oil. Add something like salt, pepper, garlic, or grated Parmesan if you're feeling ambitious.
Meanwhile, the author of the r/Cooking thread, redditor u/actuallyboa, shared how they were enjoying a snack of buttered rice with tamari and were fascinated by how this simple food was so delicious. "I wanted to know about others’ experiences with simply comforting dishes they like to make," they told Bored Panda that they couldn't wait to hear what some other redditors thought.
"In my opinion, these simple foods represent a combination of nostalgia and certainty. Because they aren’t overly complicated, I believe we can taste them with our 'mind’s tongue' and when we enjoy them, it brings forth a lot of satisfaction and perhaps even good memories, making them perfect comfort foods. Some people value quantity when it comes to food, others value quality, but either way, we all have something delicious that brings us joy."
We also wanted to find out about some other comfort foods that redditor u/actuallyboa values. "I love the clean simplicity of sushi, the heartiness of good meats and cheeses, and the nourishment and comfort that comes with wholesome soups. With soup, the simpler, the better. These foods offer enjoyment to me on many different levels, because to me, food is both a form of art and a form of love."
Simple toast. Preferably with decent bread, at least Italian or sourdough. Toast it until it's really toasted not just warm bread and slather with Irish butter. Toast is one of my top 5 favorite foods.
Tortilla filled with sharp cheddar and jalapenos, crisped up with oil in a frying pan.
Or better known as a cheese and jalapeno quesadilla.
We’re willing to wager that the absolute majority of humankind loves comfort food. Whether we’re aware of it or not, many of us gravitate to specific meals and snacks. Usually, they’re not just delicious—they have a nostalgic component, too.
Maybe you gravitate to a snack that you used to eat when you were a kid during some of the happiest moments of your childhood. Or you might make a dish that reminds you of what your mom or grandma used to make for you to show their love.
Our sense of smell and taste are both very powerful, and they can instantly remind us of the good old days. A perfect antidote to feeling down, and a great way to take a well-earned break from all the stress.
gin and tonic
I'm on the gin and tonic diet. So far I've lost 2 days!
Can't use this as a comfort drink - they don't refer to gin as "mother's ruin" for no reason. It just makes me cry, so a bad situation becomes worse. Once, I started crying because I realised we had cats. And the cats were cute. So cute, it seemed worth crying about. I've been forbidden from touching him ever since, probably for the best.
Alcohol isn’t a comfort drink! It makes nothing better. They’re called spirits for a reason. If you can’t go a month without alcohol, you’ve got a problem.

A caprese salad made with ripe tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, and fresh basil. Drizzle with balsamic or Italian dressing.
fried rice
All you need is rice, egg, shallot/onion and some meat (optional). I’m not counting salt, pepper etc. here though
It’s easy and quick to make, and always my go to food when I’m sad
However, it’s not just nostalgic dishes that help pick us up! We also gravitate toward high-fat and sweet foods because they reward our brains. The problem is, however, that if you’re constantly eating comfort food, your health might suffer in the long term. Our bodies need far more than just ice cream, chocolate, and french fries to survive. (Oh, trust us, we’re not judging anyone; we’re very partial to drowning our sorrows in food—we know what it’s like.)
There are some other ways to deal with stress and sadness that don’t necessarily involve over-indulging in calories while spending 8 hours on the couch binge-watching whatever Netflix throws at you. For one, you could opt for healthier versions of comfort food, e.g. something that you make yourself. A pint of double-choco salted caramel cookie dough ice cream is great. But maybe cinnamon toast makes you feel better, too? Or something made with fresh ingredients, say, a salad your relatives used to make when you were visiting them in the country?
Hummus mixed with a good hot sauce on naan. It might sound like a weird combo, but it's pretty spectacular in practice.
Fried cabbage with bacon and onions or leeks, or same with butter and parsley. With salt and pepper and maybe a fried egg and some toast, it's got for the gods at any meal.
However, it’s not just eating that makes us feel better. If you’re constantly under pressure and having to juggle fear, anger, and exhaustion, you need to manage that ASAP for the sake of your physical, emotional, and mental health. That starts with the basics.
Remember to stay hydrated. Get plenty of sleep. Move lots. Get away from the screen and meet some people face to face. Nostalgic nibbles help get us through the toughest of times, but it’s essential that you don’t drown in memories of the past while neglecting the present. Now, if you’ll excuse us, we’ve got some snacks to look for…
Mujadara…caramelized onions, rice, and lentils. Yum!
So that’s what my rice and lentils is missing: caramelized onions! Must try…
My favorite comfort food of all time is hot steamed white rice, a pat of butter, and tamari or soy sauce. It is simple perfection.
Pyrogies, carmelized onions, sour cream
Spam musubi: Spam, Japanese short-grain white rice, and nori.
I have a friend from Guam who introduced this simple dish to me. It is amazing.
Egg drop soup is chicken broth, eggs, soy sauce and green onions. That's four but close enough. Add sesame oil optionally
Goya boxed yellow rice with a can of black beans and diced raw onion. Costs about tree fiddy, is filling, and brain dead easy to make. Remarkably tasty and the raw onion adds a crunchy texture that makes the dish work.
Tomato Bread
1. cut the best tomato you can find in half and grate it against the large holes of a box grater into a bowl with a paper towel folded at the bottom of the bowl, add salt and stir
2. Slice of sourdough goes in the toaster
3. Peel a garlic clove. You have a little time to clean the box grater, knife, cutting board.
4. Remove the paper towel, the tomato will have released a lot of water from the salt. At this point, add a dash of nice olive oil and a couple turns of black pepper. You can squeeze out the paper towel into something if you really want but the tomato water should be too salty to drink if salted properly and you need the salt in there initially to get the moisture drawn out. It’s a small loss.
5. Immediately when the toaster pops up, grate the garlic lightly on the surface of the bread, the residual heat “cooking” the garlic ever so slightly. This is not garlic bread so use a light touch.
6. Spoon the oily seasoned tomato mixture on the bread liberally so it soaks into the bread but still retains some crunch and does not fall apart. Serve immediately while still slightly warm.
If you have basic pantry ingredients, and you freeze your sourdough bread, you can literally make this anytime you have a tomato on hand. It’s delicious enough to impress anyone for breakfast or dinner, and it amazes me every time I have it how delicious something so simple can be if you put a little love and care into it.
When I was in school, I'd often eat this incredible chia pudding. The only ingredients you need are chia seeds, coconut milk, and maple syrup.
Oatmeal with peanut butter and a chopped apple stirred into it. For true comfort food, I just want to replicate a fancy version of those instant oatmeal packets from childhood.
I always got triggered with ' instant oatmeal' because oatmeal is so frigging quick, what explains the costs of instant packages? Dried fruit and sugar ( or whatever you want. I sometimes like a few chunks marzipan and nothing else in my oatmeal) is not that hard to mix with your oatmeal...water or milk has to be added either way. Based on your portion size is just a few seconds in the microwave. Though I never tried the 'instant oatmeal' because really! I won't pay the same money for 1-3 instant portions versus the like fifteen or more servings you get out of a single oatmeal package
Rigatoni cooked al dente with grated Parmesan and black pepper. It's like a poor man’s cacio e pepe.
Besides using Parmesan instead of pecorino, this *is* cacio e pepe. And cacio e pepe did originate as poor man's food.
Pastina: mini star shaped pasta (Pastina), chicken bouillon, butter and parm if you want
i just just smell the bouillon in my grandmother's kitchen as a kid. brings me right back
A box of cereal and milk!
Buttered noodles
Tortilla + cheese + salsa = all you need for a perfect quesadilla.
Cheese on toast. Might add sliced tomatoes or chillis on top
-rice + butter + soy sauce
-fresh bagel bakery bagel + cream cheese
-baked potato + baked beans
-tortilla + cheese = quesadilla + salsa
-oatmeal + brown sugar + walnuts
-french fries + ketchup
Comfort food = hot carbs for me so, most of those aren’t proper meals but they are awesome
This can be as simple or complicated as you like, but my easy comfort food is biscuits and gravy. You can do pre-made biscuits, and for the gravy, milk, flour, and breakfast sausage. The recipe can explode from here in terms of adding spices, or starting the gravy with a roux, or making your own biscuits.
i make my own biscuits with a roux-and-milk based gravy: Owen's hot sausage patty drippings, black pepper, a tiny shake of crushed red pepper, sage, pinch of rosemary, good amount of marjoram and savory. and a bit of salt. i grind the herbs with a mortar & pestle. Not simple by any means but i grew up on this. Every weekend. It was a family weekend thing. it was my brother's favorite meal, and i make it now when i miss him. Ultimate comfort food.
Sharp cheddar melted onto crackers.
Tomato sandwich with mayo salt and pepper.
Pasta with butter and fresh parmesan cheese.
White rice with butter milk and sugar.
Slices banana with cinnamon and sugar.
Grilled cheese dipped in ketchup.
Always mashed potatoes and gravy, bonus points if there is leftover stuffing as well.
Slices of ham rolled around a strip of cheese and a sweet pickle spear.
Smoked turkey spread with cream cheese a strip of sweet pickle, roll up and enjoy.
It’s close because it’s basically 4 ingredients but feels fancy newer one to me - carbonara
Pasta, some pasta water, 5ish eggs, parmesean grated sorta finely, bacon I use half a pack of bacon cut it before cooking it
One pan cook the bacon and stir it a the pieces so they’re separated from each other. Leave in pan but move from heat so it doesn’t burn/stay hot
While bacon cooks boil water + grate like 6ish oz of parmesean.
Beat 5 eggs (4 just the yolk, 1 whole). Combine it with the parmesean u til you get something that sorta looks like yellow paste almost. (You can add seasonings here and pepper is great)
When pasta is done take some water in a mug and set aside
strain noodles & put back in the pan.
Add bacon / bacon fat to the noodles and stir it. Noodles should still be hot
Add egg mixture and stir, add water for a more sauce texture and you’re good to go. Eat immediately or you’ll want more water to keep it alive
Notes - I’ve never accidentally scrambled the eggs with the pasta doing it this way. You don’t want the bacon hot hot because it could scramble though so I try to have to some a few minutes before berthing else.
Does water count?
Being Filipino, the 2 ingredients will always be rice out of the rice cooker, and a fried egg or two.
The third would be anything preferably salty from the pantry or freezer: spam, spanish style sardines, corned beef (needs more work), tuna (needs some work), hotdogs, sausage, thick sliced ham, bacon… you get the idea.
If I could add a 4th ingredient, it’d be some wasabi furikake.
Kielbasa, onion, cabbage. Fry ‘‘em up
Instant ramen noodles w eggs and cabbage and chili crisp
So student but totally love it.
Naan flatbread. A slice of naan topped with Brie and some sort of spread, whether it's olive tapenade, marmalade, jam, or tomato sauce
Miso pasta. Grab a box of pasta, butter, and miso paste. Add some fresh Parmesan if you've got it.
Cheese and mushrooms on toast
Slice of Swiss cheese. Slice of pastrami. 1/4 avocado. Roll it up using the cheese as it’s wrap and eat it in 3 bites.
Breakfast quesadilla. All you need is a tortilla, shredded cheese, and an egg or two. Scramble the egg in a bowl, add a handful of cheese. Pop the tortilla onto a medium-hot pan, wait a couple of minutes, pour the egg mix onto the tortilla, and let it sit until the egg begins to settle. Carefully fold the tortilla in half to make a perfect quesadilla.
A PB&J sandwich, although it must be strawberry jelly for me. It's just not the same with grape.
Peanut butter and honey on a tortilla
It tastes delicious, but the picture looks like something you'd find after wiping a sick person's bootyhole.
I'm not counting salt & pepper in the ingredient totals.
Tomato sandwich (tomato, mayonnaise, bread)
Spaghetti aglio e olio (pasta, olive oil, garlic)
Scrambled eggs (eggs, cream or sour cream, butter)
Grilled cheese (bread, butter, cheese.) I usually use two types of cheese though so maybe a bit of a cheat.
Crispy smashed potatoes (potatoes, olive oil, thyme)
Roasted vegetables in general (vegetable, olive oil, maybe a dry spice)
Popcorn (popcorn kernels, ghee for popping, butter)
Baked naan with brie (storebought naan, brie, olive tapenade/marmelade/jam/tomato sauce/sliced pear)
Taking a cue from others, I'm not counting salt and pepper
Caprese - Tomato, fresh mozarella, fresh basil and/or Italian dressing
Grilled cheese - Bread, cheese, butter
Chocolate dipped strawberries
Spicy ramen - Instant ramen, egg, Sriracha
Rice and beans with cheese
Brown butter pasta - Pasta, butter, mizithra or parmesan cheese
An omelette with cheese and fresh herbs
Quesodilla with salsa or guacamole
Tortilla, shredded cheese, and an egg or two. Scramble the egg in a bowl, add a handful of cheese. Medium hot pan, put the tortilla flat in it. Wait a couple minutes, pour the egg mix onto the tortilla, let it rip long enough for the egg to start to set up, then carefully fold it in half in the pan and make a quesadilla out of it.
matzah ball soup
Fried tofu with scallions and oyster sauce.
Tuna pasta. Tuna, fusilli, sweetcorn and some mayo.
Buttery Vegemite toast.... when i no appetite in me... this.
A bowl of steaming hot brown rice, a slice of muenster cheese melted into it, a little too much sambol oelek.
-Bagels, cream cheese, and thinly sliced salmon
-Canned Tuna mixed w/ Mayo (with salt n pepper) on bread. Sometimes I put some Hot Cheetos in there :)
-white rice, sunny side eggs, and ketchup (or soy sauce) all mixed in a bowl
Japanese steamed egg custard (chawanmushi), you just need eggs and dashi stock (or any flavored broth). The ratio i like is 3 eggs to 375 mL of liquid. Mix, season, steam, and serve!
Cook pasta, after draining add an egg or two and return pot to low heat, mix, add cheese, mix more. Kind of a poor man's vegetarian carbonara.
Chip butty
Beans on toast
My late wife, who was from Scotland, loved these, though when we first met, I (an American) was like "You want what?", but when she was just wanting a simple meal this is what I made her, also she loved grilled cheese on toast with Worcestershire sauce
Peanut butter toast with a sliced tomato. So good! Also I find a runny egg on rice with soy sauce and green onions if you have them is just so satisfying.
Canned chili over lettuce with salsa and/or sour cream. This makes a darn good taco salad. Bonus points if you eat it with tortilla chips or Fritos.
Chili mac...chili over spaghetti, garnish with grated cheddar and chopped onions.
Pasta and spray butter haha. It's an autism safe food for me.
Filipino. So rice and anything.
Polish sausage. Bacon. Eggs (fried or scrambled). Bratwurst. Spam. Corn beef hash. Canned corn beef and sliced onions.
Other than that? Torta: Cook up some ground beef in a skillet, while that’s going, scramble some eggs. When the beef is just about ready, pour the eggs in and let it set. Flip. Eat. With rice. You can add anything: onions, bell peppers, etc.
J. Kenji López-Alt's mac 'n' cheese. Easier than the boxed stuff, made with macaroni, evaporated milk, and shredded cheese.
I love the food posts on BP. I learn about new things to try and they are always delicious.
I was gonna say the same thing, it's one of my favorites they post.

Scrambled eggs with cheese in. Generous amount of butter in the pan, browned well. Beat eggs, generous amount of fresh ground pepper & salt, and water (1tbsp per egg) in a bowl, pour into pan, turn heat down really low, add grated mild cheese, and either scramble, or allow to set as an omlette, depending on preference. The browned butter, fresh ground pepper and low cooking temperature are what make the dish.
Brown rice with some cream and cinnamon sugar. Haven't had it in forever, but my mom made it for me when I was younger.
When I've had a bad mental health day I toast a piece of sourdough bread, spread with proper butter and then put on mackerell fillets in tomato sauce heated up in the microwave. I figure that my brain needs the help and hopefully when I wake up the nest day I will feel like I can tackle whatever is going on.
bag of shredded cheese, just grab a wad and chomp! or tilt your head back and pour, whichever.
Chicken and broad egg noodles, I use No Yolks brand. Boil chicken (4-5 breasts or a whole cut up fryer) with a stick of butter and heavily salt the water. After chicken is cooked through add the bag of noodles and boil until done. I mostly use boneless, skinless breasts so I add chicken stock to my water for more flavor when cooking the chicken. If I use a cut up fryer I remove bones and skin after cooking when I shred the chickens, it's messier but you don't need stock. I also cut up my breasts into bite size pieces before cooking, it's just easier! I serve this with biscuits, yeast rolls, or cornbread. Excellent on cold days!
My Nan used to make sandwiches with sliced apples and cheese, on brown bread. It ages since I had that

I wonder if anyone likes banana sandwiches? Pretty tasty with a bit of jam on the bread. And chip sandwiches also known as chip butties. Tomato sandwiches at the seaside. Pretty much anything you like between two slices of buttered fresh bread is delicious. I had to get up and make myself a cheese and tomato sandwich in the middle of reading this. At 1am my time. 🤗 It was 24 hours since I last ate so it was time. 🍽️🥪☕
My husband has banana sandwiches for lunch at least once a week. I've tried adding honey or cinnamon, but plain is apparently the only way.

When I was little, mom would cook elbow macaroni in beef bouillon. I still make it from time to time. It's like beefy noodle soup 😋
I always made instant mashed potatoes and opened a can of peas... and was super content. A lot of these ideas sound scrumptious. Can't wait to try them!
My favorite is mixing sliced carrots, onions and potatoes with salt, pepper and butter, put it all into a foil pocket and either stick it in the oven or put it on the grill, best if you can get it to caramelize. Great for both single serving and a whole party, it scales well and doesn't cost much.
I’m pretty sure a lot of folks in my community will agree with me: Loco Moco!!!
cheese tortilla. open a soft tortilla, cover it in shredded cheese, microwave for a minute. boom.
Must add green salsa. Cook in pan with butter. Now it's perfect!

Mashed potatoes with creamed corn on top. (I usually mix one can of good creamed corn and a drained can of whole corn.) If I am feeling lazy I just nuke a potato and mash it with some butter, Nuke the corn in a separate bowl and pour over the potato with plenty of salt and pepper.
Pizza dough, garlic butter and mozzarella. Bake and dip in donair sauce (sweetened evaporated milk, vinegar and garlic powder).
