Side Dish Recipes

The main is only half the meal. These sides cover roast vegetables, potato dishes, grains, and fresh salads - and because sides use few ingredients, the pantry search almost always finds several you can make right now.

Side Dish Recipes: common questions

What side dish can I make with potatoes or rice?

Both are heavily represented here. Add what you have to the search and the sides that need nothing extra appear at the top.

Which sides go with my main?

Each recipe lists its ingredients and flavours upfront; pair lighter salads with rich mains and starchy sides with grilled or roasted dishes.

Can sides be a full meal?

Several heartier sides - gratins, grain bowls, loaded vegetables - work as light vegetarian mains; check the serving size on each recipe.
