    Side dishes

    Every great main course deserves an equally delicious side dish. And I mean, honestly, what is Thanksgiving without all the sides?

    Here you will find some of my tried and true, most loved side dishes. These are easy to make and compliment a weeknight dinner or a big holiday feast.

    My roasted tenderstem broccoli is an easy light and lemony side dish that comes together in not time.

    And brussel sprouts are no longer the vegetable you don't want once you've tried these brussel sprouts with bacon and sherry vinaigrette.
