Thanksgiving sides to fill half your plate!

Oct 7, 2015

‘Tis the season to give thanks! It can be tough to make healthier choices during the business of holiday preparations. But while you get together with your friends and family for thanksgiving dinner, keep in mind that it’s still possible to fill half your plate with fruits and veggies! Today we’re featuring some deliciously healthy sides to compliment your turkey dinner.

This Apple Bacon Brussel Sprouts side will instantly become a family favourite. Smoky bacon and a hint of sweetness from the apple make it a complete perfect pairing for your turkey!

Tomato Tarte Tatin is a great side to a roast or can be its own star with a side salad for vegetarians who are visiting.

Colourful and perfect to take to your next family gathering, or to serve at your own table if you are hosting, this Roasted Beet Salad has sweet, salty and peppery all in one dish. Pack the dressing separately and then drizzle of over the salad just before serving.

The kids around the table will love eating this Edamame and Asparagus Salad with their fingers to enjoy every little bite. The contrast of grilled asparagus and cooked edamame make for a delicious salad with a hint of sesame.

We love the combination in this Kale, Brown Rice and Butternut Salad. The colours and flavours of Fall are bursting and this will sit very nicely on half your plate!
