Simple&SavouryThanksgivingSides

I know plenty of you lovely NITK readers are from all over the world.. the US, Europe, Australia, and many more wonderful places, so this post might not apply to you directly, but I think you’ll still enjoy it!

Because I am Canadian and us Canucks celebrate our Thanksgiving this weekend, I wanted to highlight some of my not-so-traditional favourite side dishes for a Thanksgiving meal! If you celebrate Thanksgiving in November you can put these on your list of must-makes and start planning your amazing dinner now!

So, here are my 8 delicious, simple and savoury unique side dishes… who says potatoes need to be mashed, or zucchini and squash just diced and roasted?? How about baked fries, caramelized sweet potatoes, or zucchini and squash turned into chips instead?! Mmmm! Yes please!
