Looking to shake up your Thanksgiving side-dish lineup? We think you’ll love this colorful, flavorful pan-seared butternut squash! Sweet, tart, and savory components make for a complex flavor combination that’s anything but boring. The inspiration for this one came from thekitchn.com and can be made in advance to save you some kitchen time on Thanksgiving day.
The same side dishes seem to grace Thanksgiving tables year after year. We’re all for honoring family food traditions, but there is also something to be said for making room for new ones. You just might find a delicious replacement for that tired green bean casserole. This rich, creamy pumpkin sage polenta comes from the Kitchen Confidante blog and makes great use of any leftover pumpkin puree you have on hand from making your pumpkin pie. This can also be made in advance to save you some kitchen time on turkey day!
