If you’re looking for a great dish to bring/serve this holiday season, you’ll surely find it here. So many yummy sides!
Happiest day before Thanksgiving! I’m so excited for tomorrow. At our house, Thanksgiving often gets pushed to the side with talk of Christmas. But no matter how you decorate or how the talk goes, we all have so much to be thankful for. Thanksgiving is such a wonderful holiday to gather and celebrate.
This year, we will have a small table, so I’ll be pairing down my menu a bit. We’re currently having a huge snowstorm, so everyone is excited to focus more on decorating for Christmas—I can’t wait! That said, our meal will still be yummy. I’ll be making lots of great appetizers and side dishes. Small or large crowds, you have to have a lot of food at Thanksgiving!
I’m taking time today to share all our favorite appetizers and side dishes all in one place. I’d forgotten how many great recipes there are. Everyone knows that I love a great Brie appetizer and a holiday salad with pomegranates, so at our house, we’ll be starting with those!
Let me know what appetizers/sides you guys would love to see next month. If you have any requests, please share them below! Oh, and if any of you are still trying to plan your menu for tomorrow, here is our 2024 Thanksgiving menu in full detail!
