Side Dishes

This classic recipe is inspired by the baked beans served at the late, lamented Boston restaurant Durgin-Park.

These maple-glazed sweet potatoes stuffed with chorizo and spinach and topped with a dollop of maple-sweetened sour cream are a sweet-savory all-in-one dinner. 

This easy Thanksgiving dressing recipe made with sourdough, sausage, and aromatics is the perfect turkey side dish.

A delicious cream sauce and crispy garlic topping elevates this easy veggie side dish.

Stacking tomato, mozzarella, and basil makes this Hasselback Caprese a summer side dish that’s both delicious and visually appealing.

Marshmallow-topped sweet potato casseroles may be a classic, but we like how the crunchy, salty-sweet pecan topping contrasts with the super-silky puree in this updated sweet potato casserole recipe.

This updated creamed spinach recipe has crunchy topping of toasted almonds and bread crumbs.

A delicious crust and cheesy finish make these ultra-crisp Parmesan roasted potatoes a real crowd-pleaser.

This roasted sugar pumpkin wedges recipe is a tasty way to enjoy pumpkin in its pre-pureed form. You’ll find these edible pumpkins at many supermarkets and most farm stands. They can vary in size, but this recipe is flexible enough to work with any medium-ish pumpkin. Flavors of maple, brown sugar, toasted walnuts, and rosemary are the perfect sweet-savory counterparts.

Here’s an Italian-ish take on Mexican street corn, where freshly cooked cobs are doused in garlic butter and sprinkled with freshly grated Parmesan (or Romano) cheese, followed by a shower of minced parsley or basil (or both). It’s the perfect summer side.

In this comforting Twice-Baked Potato Casserole, baked potatoes are mashed with cheddar cheese, bacon, sour cream, and roasted garlic and topped with scallions. Delicious.
