Beans, greens, potatoes, and corn are just four ingredients you'll need to make your Thanksgiving side dish recipes a hit. Whether you're a fan of carb-loading with your turkey or would rather stick to veggies, we've got easy Thanksgiving recipes ready to make courtesy of TikTok. And we mean easy: These side dishes are all way less complicated than figuring out how to choose a Thanksgiving turkey for the big meal, let alone cook one. (Although if you're in need of a good turkey recipe to go with all these sides, we suggest Kamala Harris’s—it's delicious!)
Warning: Not all of these Thanksgiving side dish recipes are the healthiest options, but they're all delicious…even if they'll put you in a food coma. And if you do find yourself in need of a postdinner nap? Throw on one of the best Thanksgiving movies and recharge because you won't want to miss dessert.
Cheesy Scalloped Potatoes
Say goodbye to boring potatoes seasoned with only salt and pepper. This cheesy scalloped dish is surprisingly simple, given how delicious it is. Boil russet potatoes before sautéing garlic, sweet onion, and spices in butter. Add all-purpose flour, milk, and fold in cheese before baking the dish.
Kale Salad
Kale is a versatile vegetable that's used in everything from smoothies to pasta. So sure, a traditional kale salad might not seem special, but that's because your everyday salad doesn't include chickpeas, maple syrup, and Dijon mustard. It's one of those Thanksgiving dinner ideas that will wow your guests.
Crispy Smashed Roasted Potatoes
Forget French fries. Potato chips, who? Tater tots? Never heard of them. You don't need a deep fryer to make potatoes extra crispy. The secret is to smash them after they're boiled and make sure to flip them once they're in the oven.
Spicy Maple Za'atar Carrots
Thanksgiving vegetables don't often get the same fanfare as your turkeys and pumpkin pies, but why? These Za'atar carrots are a mixture of sweet and spicy due to the maple syrup and combination of herbs. The mixture consists of toasted sesame seeds, dried sumac, salt, and other spices. The colorful vegetables are a unique addition to a traditional Thanksgiving dinner.
