Winter Wedding Comfort Foods That Won't Disappoint

Getting ready to plan the catering for your winter wedding? If so, be sure to keep comfort foods in mind when creating your menu.

Regardless of the time of year, just about everyone from kids to adults love comfort food. This is arguably truest of the long, cold and snowy days of winter.

No, your guests won’t have their comfy armchair to sit in at your wedding reception, but you can still offer some highly cozy food options. As you map out your winter wedding catering plans, here are some comfort foods to keep in mind.

To-Go Poutine Bar

If you’re thinking comfort foods, keep poutine in mind. While this originally was a Canadian tradition, the fame of this dish rapidly spread. That’s no surprise since it’s a delicious, affordable and easy-to-make comfort food.

It all starts with a base of tasty French fries. After that, just add some gravy and cheese curds and you’ll have a top-notch tasty treat. All you’ll need after that are some sturdy and aesthetically pleasing to-go containers and you’ll be in business.

Tomato Soup and Toast

Although most kids love grilled cheese and tomato soup, it’s just as popular with adults. For that reason, a variation of the childhood dish makes an excellent winter wedding choice if you’re looking for comfort food.

All you need to do is find a way to spruce the classic recipe up a bit. Try sprinkling a little cheese and basil on your soup for starters. Then, come up with a tasty toast to accompany the soup. This choice is sure to be a welcomed and delicious dish, especially during those cold months.

Macaroni-and-Cheese Bites

Just like with the tomato soup idea, macaroni and cheese bites are a delicious spinoff of the traditional comfort food. Instead of a creamy blend, your bites will have a crunchy and snack-like appeal.

No one will fault you for your simplicity either. That’s because there’s a lot you can do with mac & cheese bites. Besides the bread base, you can also add things like bacon to really make the flavor pop. It’s hard not to love something like that.

Soft Pretzel Station

Another winter wedding comfort food that’s sure to impress is a soft pretzel station. This yummy and filling treat can act more like a side or a dessert depending on the mood of your friends and family.

Your guests can have mustard or cheese sauce for their soft pretzels if they like. If they’re craving catered desserts, they can also try butter, cinnamon and sugar among other possibilities.
