Side Dishes/Appetizers
Homemade Pizza Sauce
For the life of me, I have not been able to find store-bought pizza sauce that is healthy and satisfies my tastebuds. There always seems to be something missing, in my opinion. So....here is my take on it - and I must say, it is very tasty!
Scalloped Potatoes
This side dish is SO GOOD. A perfect complement to a good chicken dinner when company comes over.
Rainbow Chard w/ Feta
Hold on...don't disqualify this side dish because is says "chard." I wasn't sure about it at first either, but it is pretty tasty and SO healthy for you!
Jalapeño Popper Dip
I have tried numerous times to take a picture of this dip, but it is gone too quick!!!! A good sign I guess.... it is extremely tasty and has a spicy kick.
Fresh Spring Rolls
It is very hard to take a flattering picture of spring rolls! :) But I guarantee, they taste fantastic! Every asian restaurant makes them a little different, so here is my take on these delicious appetizers. A little work, but worth the effort!
Pico de Gallo Salsa
Fresh is the word I am looking for. My husband can always tell when I am making this salsa because of the fresh and fragrant cilantro, tomatoes, and lime juice. SO yummy, & healthy for you too!
Bruschetta Bites
Simple, easy, & affordable. The perfect appetizer, but we even eat these sometimes as a meal!
Baked Zucchini with Ricotta & Tomato Sauce
A perfect side dish to accompany grilled steak or other meat, that is light & refreshing.
Twice Baked Potatoes
A bit of work, but worth every effort! Baked potato mixed with sour cream & cheese, then thrown back into the oven to bake into a cheesy, creamy delight.
Grilled Veggie Kabobs
A summertime favorite! Fresh veggies marinated in olive oil, teriyaki, garlic, & herbs.
Roasted Red Potatoes with Rosemary
This is the perfect side dish to accompany chicken, steak, pot roast, you name it! Baby red potatoes drizzled in olive oil, garlic, & fresh rosemary.
Homemade Guacomole
Simple, easy, delicious, and far better than store-bought!
Green Bean Casserole
This green bean casserole will have you asking for seconds, and thirds, and.......!!!! My sister gave me the recipe a few years ago. Perfect for Thanksgiving Dinner!
My Favorite Chicken Gravy
This basic chicken gravy is perfect for almost anything! Throw it over rice, potatoes, or use as a base in chicken pot pie.
