It's All About Those Sides

I love Turkey for Thanksgiving as much as the next person, but it is all about the side dishes for me.  What is your favorite side dish?  Any amazing recipes?  I'd love to try something new :)

  • Hmmmm. I like sweet potatoes.

    And home made mashed potatoes
    I boil cauliflower Brussel sprouts an potatoes together then drain spice as you like and add some butter and heavy cream.
  • Homemade Mac & Cheese and Green Beans. :x
  • Loading the player...
  • I don't like any of the usual thanksgiving foods except mashed potatoes. I like the skin in and a tiny bit of horseradish. Way better than it sounds. But my god, is there any form of potato that isn't amazing?

  • We love rainbow layered jello with whipping cream on top. I also like apple/walnut salad. Other than that we have the usual dressing, rolls, yams, green beans, mashed potatoes. Oh and parsnips. LOVE parsnips!

  • Roasted root vegetables

    Cornbread, cranberry and sausage stuffing

    Love sweet potatoes - not in a casserole with brown sugar, etc., just a regular sweet potato with butter

    Roasted cauliflower

    My dad's green bean casserole

    fresh cranberry applesauce

     

  • stuffing! I use an old family recipe. Stovetop just doesn't cut it.
  • Slow cooker mashed potatoes and gravy!

  • Crawfish cornbread dressing is my specialty.
  • Cornbread dressing 
    Broccoli and cheese casserole

    I LIVE for these.
  • Mashed potatoes, heavy on the butter and garlic, and depending on my mood with either gravy or sour cream.

    Also, more of an appetizer really, but deviled eggs. Only way I'll eat a hard-boiled egg yolk!

  • I make two kinds of bread, an olive braid and a rosemary wreath, stuffing, mashed potatoes with gravy, beans and broccoli roasted with bacon, brussel sprouts with cranberry brown butter... usually I make a corn casserole but I'm skipping it this year.

  • I love it all. I'm wondering how this year will go since we are celebrating with a family we've never celebrated with before. I hope they have good food.
  • Crab salad, pecan Carmel sweet potatoes, bacon broccoli salad and a fluffy whipped fruit salad .

    But the ultimate side for me is the homemade warm rolls! And cinnamon honey butter ... Stop I die.
