Sure, you've got your turkey, but what else are you going to serve
to fill those empty plates?
Probably more than the turkey itself, I enjoy the side dishes. Inevitably, that's what I find myself going back for and gnoshing on after the holiday is over. I'm presenting a list of several recipes I've published here before that I think would go well with the holiday feast. They're filled with autumn flavors and easy to make.
- Parsnip and Apple Soup A great start for the meal.
- Roasted Root Vegetables Maple syrup adds a deep, flavorful note to naturally sweet autumn vegetables. Roasting brings out even more of their sweet flavors.
- Celery Root Slaw Celery root and apples pair wonderfully in this recipe.
- Tangy Glazed Beets Gold beets, milder than their red cousins, are a perfect match for the tangy, citrusy sauce that develops as you cook them.
- Spicy New Year's Butternut Squash I developed this recipe for Rosh Hoshanah, the Jewish new year, but it would make a memorable addition to the Thanksgiving table.

Have questions? Are you curious about the differences between baking powder and baking soda? Is butter better for you than margarine? Is "all natural" the same as "organic"? Ask me! Every Friday, I'll answer your questions about food and cooking and if I don't know the answer, I'll find someone who does.
