Side Dish Recipes
The simple recipes that make every meal feel complete.
Because Every Great Meal Needs Something on the Side
Sometimes the main dish gets all the attention, but it's often the side dishes everyone remembers. Whether it's buttery mashed potatoes, a crisp garden salad, roasted vegetables, or warm homemade bread, the right side can turn an ordinary dinner into a meal everyone looks forward to.
Cowboy Casserole
Several years ago, I went to a picnic and made a Cowboy Casserole recipe that I found from an old cooking magazine. As soon as a very special friend tasted it, she claimed it was my “go-to recipe” from now on. Since then, I have made this delicious casserole every time I needed to bring something to a get-together.
