There are just as many ways to cook a turkey as there are ways of skinning a cat. But if you ask me what thanksgiving dinner is all about…it’s the side dish. Side dishes can make or break a real thanksgiving dinner. Not everyone is into turkey, so you got to bring the variety. I’m talking about stuffing, corn, potato salads, beans, and of course mashed potatoes, etc. We’ve taking the liberty of ranking the top 3 side dishes according to a recent poll done by Insider magazine:

3. Mac and Cheese: For people that are not into fall foods and kids, mac and cheese is a must have. Many vegetarians will also gravitate towards mac and cheese. Typically served hot, but can also be served cold, almost like potato salad, once mixed in with certain vegetables you can’t go wrong either way, although for thanksgiving, most people prefer it hot.

2. Stuffing: is a side dish that is almost synonymous with thanksgiving, and it’s got to be served hot. With so many variations of herbs and spices that can go into this dish, stuffing can be celebrated culturally. For example, as an Indian American, my mom would make this dish spicy and Indian herbs and spices.  The many flavors to this dish are what makes this dish so popular

1. Mashed potatoes. The all time classic and all time favorite. Mashed potatoes can be used any time of the year but “Thanksgiving is where these creamy, fluffy, pillowy piles of heaven shine brightest”. You’ll be sure to bring the heat with this side dish, as it is served only hot. Don’t forget the gravy; people may dip the turkey in gravy, but they’ll smother the mashed potatoes with it. Served hot and easy to make, no wonder this side dish is the most popular.
