Rock 'n' Casse-role

There's a definite nip in the air and chilly evenings mean slow cooked, one pot, hearty meals. I'm a massive comfort food eater and I can't resist soups, stews and casseroles for every meal! This lovely blue casserole from Denby looks so good that you don't need to transfer the meal from a pan to a serving dish, it's would be perfect for bringing a spicy slow-cooked chilli to the table.

Next time you're picking up the ingredients for a Coq au Vin Blanc on a supermarket trip, why not also check out this purple number at Sainsbury's? A rather gorgeous plum-coloured, enamel coated, cast iron dish for £30 is a bit of a bargain, and even if your local Sainsbury's is a small one, you can order one online and have it delivered to your store for free.

Trust IKEA to give you two dishes for the price of one, the lid of this casserole can be used as an oven, or serving, dish too. I'd use this to whip up a pot of honey spiced pumpkin soup or ratatouille, then curl up or the sofa and browse the internet for jumpers.

If you fancy trying Hazel's Grana Padano cannelloni with asparagus then these casserole dishes from Cath Kidson would be ideal. Four dishes in pretty colours and sizes will suit all your needs, from lasagne to apple crumble

So, what are your favourite comfort foods?
