Legendary Southern Side Dish Recipes
No matter what you're making for dinner you'll probably need side dish recipes! Some are very simple, while others take more effort but all of these recipes are delicious!
These crispy home fries are one of the most popular side dish recipes here on Restless Chipotle. They are so easy to make, especially if you have an iron skillet! Old Fashioned Macaroni Salad shows up at almost every potluck and picnic and this is the recipe I grew up on.
You'll definitely want to check out the tutorial on sweet potatoes, too!
Spiced apple rings are a beautiful bright red and add a delicious touch to any meal. I don't know about you but they were one of my favorites when I was little. They're required on our Thanksgiving table right along with my slow cooker cornbread stuffing.
The most unique side dish recipe has to be the Southern Pineapple Casserole - it makes it to the table every Easter.
Many of these recipes can be made a few days ahead of time or even frozen. Most vegetables fall into this category. Rice is very versatile and can be changed up with the addition of fresh herbs or even leftover veggies.
And who doesn't like pasta, whether in a salad or plain with a little butter?
Simple salads are nice but sometimes you just need something with a little more pizazz! I've got you! Don't forget to add your favorite side dish recipes to your own recipe box just use the button on each recipe.
