October was all about comfort food! From lasagna, to baked ziti, to a stuffed cabbage stew and a “Love” cake, read on to find out which recipes our readers liked the most in October!
10. Fat Spaghetti with Garlicky Tomato Sauce

The sauce for this dish only has five ingredients, with the star ingredient being lots and lots of garlic! Rach serves with a fat, hollow spaghetti that absorbs all that delicious sauce. Yum!

This cozy and comforting dinner features chicken thighs cooked with lots of onions and lots of sweet and hot paprika and served with boiled potatoes and a delicious sauce.
08. Chili Cheese Dog Potato Skins

What would you get if you mixed a chili cheese dog and a potato? You’d get these decadent potato skins! Delish!
07. Grant’s No-Measure Peanut Butter Cookies

This delicious peanut butter cookie recipe couldn’t be easier to make! You just mix a jar of peanut butter, a box of brown sugar, a pinch of salt and a few eggs, then bake! Wow!

This recipe calls for béchamel and a meat sauce layered between sheets of easy homemade pasta, with Parmigiano-Reggiano. Yum!
05. Garlic-Bread Chicken Nuggets with Balsamic Ketchup

You cannot go wrong if you make these amazingly delish chicken nuggets! In fact, we challenge you to make them last longer than five minutes! You might want to make a double batch if you’re planning on sharing with anyone else.
04. Italian Ricotta Cheesecake

Buddy Valastro’s Italian cheesecake has a short ingredients list and is remarkably simple to make.
03. Nancy Fuller’s Stuffed Cabbage Without the Roll

This hearty autumn dish is like a stew with all the flavors of a cabbage roll. Nancy browns her ground pork or beef in a heavy bottomed-pan, then onion, carrot, cabbage, broth, tomatoes and more delicious ingredients. She simmers until the cabbage is tender, then adds rice. What a perfect one-pot dinner for a cool night!
02. Valerie Bertinelli's Sicilian Love Cake

Valerie Bertinelli shared this special recipe. She starts with a simple chocolate cake mix, prepares the batter, and pours into a greased cake pan. Then, she mixes up a blend of mascarpone cheese, ricotta cheese, sugar and eggs, and pours over the top. The two layers combine to make a delicious marbled cake, which she tops with a chocolate frosting. A chocolate and cheese cake? What more could you want?

And coming in at number one, we have a classic but nevertheless delectable homestyle baked ziti! It’s easy to bake up for a crowd, but this is also an excellent family dinner!
