Among the many reasons I've been called weird is the fact that I don't just tolerate salads—I love them. But in the depths of winter, when the streets are icy and it's dark before 5 p.m., even I don't want to eat salad. After the holidays, though, I do crave something lighter—I just want it to be warm and cozy. Preferably, it's something in a bowl I can use as a handwarmer as well as a belly warmer.

If you're also craving meals that are both comforting and light, scroll through these recipes popular among users of MyRecipes, our tool for saving and organizing recipes from Serious Eats and beyond. I've added them all to my MyRecipes collection and am looking forward to ticking each one off as I make it.
