Top 5 Holiday Side Dish Recipes

This time last month, we shared our top three Thanksgiving side recipes, and while those are still great holiday side dish recipes, Crosswinds in Kyle, Texas decided that we wanted to share a few more to stay in the giving spirit of the holidays.

You can never go wrong with a casserole during the holidays. Plus, as far as holiday side dish recipes go, casseroles are fairly straightforward. One of the biggest holiday food staples is sweet potatoes, especially when you use this yummy sweet potato casserole recipe that’s sure to have your guests wanting to lick the dish clean.

Skillet Cornbread

Top 5 Holiday Side Dish Recipes

A forever staple, especially here in the south, cornbread is the perfect side dish to please everyone. Take your cornbread up a notch by cooking and serving it straight from a skillet. Since cooking it is a little different with a skillet, we recommend this delicious recipe for buttery skillet cornbread.

Creamy Au Gratin Potatoes

Top 5 Holiday Side Dish Recipes

Some people may just know these as “cheesy potatoes,” but when they’re done correctly, they can be so much more! When it comes to holiday side dish recipes, these creamy au gratin potatoes may be as cheesy or cheesier than the ultimate mac and cheese we shared last month.

Prosciutto Wrapped Asparagus

Hands down the easiest of all our holiday side dish recipes, this prosciutto wrapped asparagus only calls for two ingredients and only takes about 10 minutes to create! You’ll definitely want to make sure to get plenty of extra ingredients. We have a feeling you may be getting requests for second and thirds with this one!

Black-Eyed Peas

Top 5 Holiday Side Dish Recipes

An old, old tradition in the south for New Year’s is to eat a bowl of black-eyed peas for good luck into the next year. So to help you have an excellent 2018, we’d suggest enjoying some black-eyed peas. Now as for how you specifically cook then, here are a few different recipes for black-eyed peas.
