Sides

Just as shoes complete an outfit, side dishes complete a meal!

About Sides

The only rule for side dishes is this: Eclectic is fine when you dine! Mix it up with different tastes, textures and temperatures to give your meal a nice variety. Choose side dishes of varying colors, too, for a balanced presentation on the plate.

Tips & Tricks

Need some new ideas to spice up side dish selections? Try these:

When making white rice, flavor the water with chicken stock or the seasoning packet from ramen noodle soup.
Add crunch to rice, cooked green beans or lettuce salads with toasted almonds, pecans or walnuts.
Use simple presentation techniques for an easy wow; for example, use a large ice-cream scoop (or 1-cup measuring cup) to mound rice or potatoes on a plate.
Think diversity when choosing sides for a plain entree. Colorful vegetables, different flavors and colors and a variety of textures will make dinner taste even better.
Garnishing takes only moments but makes a terrific presentation. Two pieces of lemon grass or chives, for example, can be crossed and placed on rice or potatoes for an extra pop.
Invest in a peppermill so you can add fresh-ground pepper to the plated meal.
