The combination of sweet, fresh pineapple, salty fish sauce and spicy chile sauce is typical of Thai dishes.
Main dishes usually steal the spotlight, but these nine sides shine all on their own.
Rich in antioxidants, anti-inflammatory, and blood sugar-regulating properties, sweet potatoes add a sweetness to both the holiday table and your health! These 7 scrumptious, satisfying, and sophisticated sides showcase sweet potato's natural, full bodied sweetness without adding extra sugar and fat.
Sweet, tender carrots make a perfect side for turkey or brisket. Try using colorful heirloom carrots, as shown here, to add an extra punch of color to this vibrant dish.
Yukon gold potatoes have thin skin and buttery flesh, thus abolishing the need for loads of butter, cream and salt. If that wasn't good enough, they have a lower starch content than Russets and Idahos to boot.
Stunning rainbow (or Bright Lights) Swiss chard is a colorful alternative to the standard, with vibrant yellow, pink and purple hues and the same antioxidants you know and love.
Roll up a couple of these low-cal treats as a side for your favorite lean protein or wow friends and family by serving them as hors d'oeuvres at your next party!
You don't have to limit your enjoyment of apples, an excellent source of dietary fiber, to snacks and desserts. Here, sweet-tart green apples take center stage in a delicious side dish (or starter).
A side dish shouldn't take too long to prepare. Even so, with just 10 minutes of hands-on time, this deconstructed falafel salad is sure to add plenty of zip (and fiber) to your meal!
Whether you use the fresh or frozen type, these berries break down as they cook, while the apples stay slightly firm, creating a pleasing variety of textures and tastes in our revamped cranberry sauce. Plus, the slight spiciness of fresh ginger gives this not-too-sweet fat-free condiment a pleasant kick.
