Side Dishes

Every great main dish needs delicious sides to go with it. Below you’ll find a collection of my easy, healthy side dishes to complement your next family meal. I have the classics, of course, like garlic mashed potatoes and who doesn’t love a baked sweet potato! Plus loads more salads, and vegetable sides for every dietary need, whether it’s whole30, gluten-free, dairy-free, low-carb, and more. Looking for healthier versions of your favorite holiday side dishes? Try my green bean casserole or this lightened-up version of my mom’s Thanksgiving stuffing.
