If you can spring for it buy some high protein beans or lentils or some other legume and mix them, almost every society on the planet no matter the geography invented rice and beans because it's so damn easy to store for long periods of time and will get you the protein and calories you need to survive.
Is it fun? No. But it will get you fed and it's an excellent base to throw in other things to spice it up. Get a little extra money and can afford a bit of meat and veggies? Sauteed them up and you get a full blown meal with a side dish and a porkchop/fish filet/chicken breast with your rice.
Wait, rice and beans isn't fun? It requires some extra seasonings but Carrib style rice and peas are my jam. Though it does have a Lotta aromatics.
Well... personally I think rice and beans can be delicious but it's not most people's idea of comfort food I suppose. At least where I'm from.
Then, lentils maybe ? If neither beans or lentils are confort food, then what is it ?
Lentilles-saucisse is a French staple and I'd definitely consider it comfort food. Lentils, sausages, with some carrots and little bacon bits (lardons) cooked into the lentils, heaven.
Je ne mange pas de viande mais les lentilles, c'est mon enfance. Je fais revenir un oignon dans une poêle, j'ajoute une carotte en rondelle et y fais cuire des lentilles avec un bouquet garni et j'ajoute de la crème fraîche à la faim... euh non à la fin et ohlala... bon, bin je sais ce que je mange demain.
