7 Healthy Sides For Thanksgiving

By Nedi · On November 20, 2019

We can all agree that the real stars of any Thanksgiving feast are the side dishes. I put together some of my all-time family favorites that are bursting with flavor. Thanksgiving is a time to enjoy all the delicious foods and special moments with friends and family, so fill up on these tasty sides! The below Healthy with Nedi side dishes will enhance any holiday table – just don’t expect any leftovers, because these will get gobbled up pretty quickly. 😉

 

Roasted Peppers With Garlic

These exquisite roasted peppers won’t only impress your guests but will leave a symphony of flavors in your mouth. The pretty colors and rich flavors from the Cubanelle Peppers make this the ideal healthy side. Peppers are low in calories and exceptionally rich in vitamin C and antioxidants. You can use either a grill or oven for this quick and tasty recipe.

Baked Cauliflower Mash

Who needs mashed potatoes when you’ve got this light and fresh cauliflower mash? This is a delicious vegetable side that’s easy to prepare and has less carbs than traditional mashed potatoes, but just as creamy without the dairy. This perfect holiday dish is loved by all – your friends and family won’t believe its cauliflower!

 
Potato Au Gratin

This decadent Potato Au Gratin will be welcomed at any dinner table! I love this recipe because it’s customizable and you can swap any cheeses you would like. This velvety delicate dish is so simple to make and complements any entrée.

Stuffed Sweet Potatoes

Stuffed sweet potatoes are sweet, tender, and packed with protein. They are filled with vitamin rich lentils and topped with tangy cheese crumbles. It is the perfect gluten-free festive holiday dish.

 
Mushroom Quinoa “Risotto”

Craving a fabulous Italian inspired dish? Try this mushroom quinoa risotto as a twist on the classic! It is just as hearty as the original but contains twice as much protein and can be made vegan friendly.

Moroccan Cumin Carrots

The rich blend of spices makes these roasted carrots hard to resist. Carrots are a great source of beta carotene, antioxidants, and fiber. The crispy carrot skins and caramelized flavor make these Moroccan cumin carrots a knockout dish perfect for any crowd!

 
Stuffed Mushroom With Pesto

These beautiful stuffed mushrooms are definitely going to be a hit at your next dinner party. The combination of mushrooms, pesto, and vegan cheese is simply divine. This low carb starter is packed with antioxidants, potassium, and healthy fats!
