Good source of comfort food recipes book or website...?!
recipe sites i already have looked at are
recipezaar,
allrecipes,
copykat,
topsecretrecipes,
foodnetwork,
homeandgarden,
yahoo,
grouprecipes, and
recipegoldmine.
Foods that I do not care for are - beef livers, cooked/canned/frozen spinach, mustard and pickles... I can use stovetop, crockpot, oven, rotissiere and grill.
(PS - i personally enjoy mustard and pickles, hubby does not. beef liver and cooked spinach generally do not even make it into my basket when shopping.)
Answers: I would like to know if anyone has seen a good source of comfort food recipes?

Ina Garten's Cookbook "Barefoot Contessa Family Style" is full of great comfort foods.
Paula Dean is the Queen on comfort food.
foodnetwork.com, visit her site. Her recipes are good and foolproof. They turn out just like they are supposed to with not much effort involved.

I love Rachel Ray's magazine and website. She always offers up great ideas for easy to make comfort food.
I get Taste Of Home magazine, and many of them are comfort foods..
I have a book called "From Our House to Yours: Comfort Food to Give and Share." It is a compilation of recipes from cookbook authors, celebrity chefs, etc. so no main author is listed. It is published by Chronicle Books, and I think I picked it up as a bargain book somewhere, or at a Half Price Books store. The chapters are 1) Soups, 2) Casseroles, Pastas and Potpies, 3) Roasts, Braises and Stews, 4) Salads and Sides, 5) Sweets, and 6) Healing Tonics and Elixirs. It's a pretty good cookbook, but I haven't made a whole lot of the recipes (mostly because I rely on a few favorite cookbooks).
Most of the sites I've found with recipes for comfort foods are the ones you've listed. You might want to try About.com (link in Sources) and enter comfort foods in the search box; you'll get several results. Same if you search for comfort foods cookbooks on Yahoo or Google.
Happy Searching (and Cooking!)

Jessica D.'s got this one covered. Taste of Home Magazine is comfort food heaven.
I don't make as many "comfort food" recipes as I used to. Fat and calories abound. But last week I made chicken and dumplings and we sure did enjoy it.
