The high this Saturday is predicted to be -3f.
I’ve made stew. Lasagna? Yup. American goulash? Check. Chicken and dumplings? Love them. I’m running out of ideas.
What do you like that “sticks to the bones”?
Chicken Pot Pie… nuf said! 
Chili, spicier the better.
I have half a pork butt thawing for tamales tomorrow. Haven’t made them in 15 years, but here In spice deprived Michigan, even my half-ass out-of-practice 'males are gonna be great.
I should add, that when I make them it’s a 2 in one with the pork simmering in Chili Verde, which is the cold-weather anti magic.
It’s 32ºF right now (‘Feels like 29’). I have a couple of Trader Joe’s French Onion Soups in the oven.
Cioppino. But I don’t want to talk about it.
Chili, or any sort of pastry with meat in the middle - pot pies, Cornish pasty, pirozhki.
Chili, beef stew, lasagna…the list is endless. Tonight it’s Loaded Baked Potato Soup. I mean, it’s all of 63° outside!
Pho! Dal. Try out my Ukrainian former roomie Irina Marchenko’s Fabulous Everything-But-the-Kitchen Sink Ukrainian Borsch!
Meat loaf and mashed potatoes with gravy.
Mac and cheese (homemade)
Ham and scalloped potatoes.
Didn’t I just do a thread like this?
Steamed suet (or other hard fat) puddings, both sweet and savoury:

And not forgetting
chili-mac-n-cheese with corn followed up by one of my wife’s yummy chocolate and butterscotch chip cookies
Chili is of course the correct answer, but there are many variations on that. The Lady of the House likes to make what she calls “White Chili” using white beans, ground turkey (or chicken), sweet corn (off the cob) and spinach (the recipe calls for kale, but YUK). Corn muffins on the side.
I recently found a great chili recipe online. I make a batch once a month or so and freeze it in single-serving containers. And it ought to be a great winter food, but I tend to associate chili with summer things like chili dogs and cookouts; kind of a social, Americana, milieu.
I bought a ham for Christmas dinner, and once it’s down to the bone I plan to make bean-and-ham soup. That seems a bit more wintery to me. Hope I can find the recipe I used last year, it was yummy.
Arroz Caldo, Filipino Chicken Soup. Bonus is that with prep, it is only ~45 minutes.
Chicken Divan
Pot Roast
Any thick, hearty soup
Meatloaf or meatballs (not Italian ) with mashed potatoes and gravy and green bean casserole
My Tamale schedule got delayed a bit, and were constructed Today. But damn were they good, Although I probably shouldn’t have eaten half a dozen in 15 minutes.
[Insert non-existing bloated pig smiley here]
One a somewhat cold day like today (-9ºF, -23ºC), it’s nice to have a crock pot full of a hot, thick stew or soup. I like a good beef stew, or thick potato soup. French onion soup is good too, though it’s not thick. Take leftover rolls from Christmas, slice in half, put cheese on them and toast in the oven, then dunk them in the french onion soup.
It is supposed to hit -20f here tonight and tomorrow we will have a high temp of -1f. I am making Chicken Tortilla soup in the crock pot tomorrow.
I can’t remember the last time we had this many days in a row below freezing in NYC, and it’s keeping on into next week.
The spaghetti and meatballs and garlic-heavy marinara I made tonight were hugely satisfying.
