15 Easy Delicious Side Dishes A Cedar Spoon

The holiday season is upon us and side dishes are always a big hit.

Whether you like to have a variety of potatoes, vegetables and salads or prefer just a couple of simple sides like Honey Glazed Carrots and Mashed Potatoes this round-up is for you.  I am sharing 15 Easy, Delicious Side Dishes that make great options for the holidays and are a nice way to mix up the side dishes you serve your family throughout the week.

Sometimes I find myself serving my family the same few side dishes week after week because they are easy and I know my kids will eat them.  But in order to keep things new and make sure my kids are eating a variety of foods I am trying to branch out more and try some new dishes.
