3 Standout Sides to Perfect Your Thanksgiving Menu
November 23, 2020
Thanksgiving will look a bit different for us this year. We’re eating outdoors, enjoying understated meals, and embracing the many meanings of low-key. But let’s make one thing clear: a downsized dinner doesn’t mean we’re ditching the delicious dishes that come with the season of celebrating. Set the table and head to the kitchen—this simple veggie-filled menu has everything you need for a memorable evening at home.
3 Standout Sides to Perfect Your Thanksgiving Menu
Be Mindful With The Menu
Here’s a silver lining of a smaller guest list: the freedom to focus on dishes that go beyond the realms of tradition. Not a fan of turkey? Skip it and spend your time on the sides, sweets, and vegetable dishes that you’ll enjoy for days to come. Simplified hosting also means fewer dishes and more time spent relaxing (and enjoying the leftovers that are bound to exist).
Wholesome Meets Satisfying
Every Thanksgiving menu needs a standout stuffing recipe—this wild mushroom and kale variation will never disappoint. The mix of oyster mushrooms, kale, and cornbread offers up an elevated and wholesome take on the classic dish. Serve it warm and let the deliciousness kick in.
Featuring seasonal ingredients like butternut squash and pomegranate, the curried soup and must-have relish pack a one-two punch of unparalleled flavor. With miniature loaves of pumpkin bread primed for dipping, this is a Thanksgiving spread you’ll most definitely never forget.
