Thanksgiving Sides to Dish Out Thursday

Thanksgiving is quite literally just a few hours away and we have the perfect side dishes for you to impress your friends and family with! We wish you happy eating!

Squash Spinach Salad

This recipe hardly qualifies as a “healthy” salad option. But it definitely is a delicious one! With bacon, sautéed shallots and caramelized brown sugar, this salad will be a hit with your guests, even if your waistline might protest a bit. But would it really be Thanksgiving without at least a little indulgence?

Caramelized Brussels Sprouts

In a way, this “vegetable” recipe follows the model put out by the squash spinach salad. As in, it’s not nearly as good for you as you’re going to pretend it is. What it is for sure is amazingly yummy. This side calls for not only the Brussels sprouts but some caramelized sugar and a heaping portion of pistachios to garnish.

Sweet Potato Gnocchi

This dish is sure to meet the needs of most of your diet-restricted friends. It’s vegan and very healthy. If you’ve never tried or made gnocchi before, you’ve really missed out! This potato-based pasta is a decadent alternative to regular pasta and is much loved. Check out the recipe and give it a try!
