My favorite food holiday of the year is quickly approaching, and if you haven’t guessed what it is already from the title of the post… well it’s Thanksgiving!
The best part of Thanksgiving for me besides the beloved golden turkey are the side dishes. I love how creative you can get with them, and every year I find myself eating more of the side dishes than the turkey itself.
That being said, this year I wanted to share with you guys some of my favorite quick and easy side dishes that are break from the norm (stuffing, cranberry sauce, etc.) While you’ll find those dishes listed; they all have a nice twist from the traditional recipes. Check out these 17 quick and easy Thanksgiving side dishes that are guaranteed to make your Thanksgiving filled with yummy food; and have you spending less time in the kitchen and more time eating with your family and friends!
1. Honey Roasted Butternut Squash with Cranberries and Feta
2. Simple Roasted Cranberry Sauce
4. Crock Pot Green Bean Casserole
7. Loaded Mashed Potato Casserole
8. Creamy Baked Corn with Parmesan
9. Roasted Carrots with Balsamic + Thyme
10. Spicy Bacon Mushroom Truffle Oil Mac n Cheese
11. Roasted Red Pepper and Marscapone Mashed Potatoes
