Bacon and cheese and carbs… What could be better than Bacon Swiss Bread that brings all three together?! Bacon. Swiss. Bread. You can’t go wrong here. This recipe is requested quite often in my home. Even my picky cheese eaters love this…even though they don’t like Swiss cheese. Go figure. Bacon Swiss Bread has won…
With Thanksgiving right around the corner, we are beginning to plan our menu and call dibs on the dishes we want to bring. Besides being with family, these sweet potatoes are one of the best things about Thanksgiving.
This flavorful and colorful roasted vegetable medley can be made ahead and reheated so you aren’t competing with the turkey and stuffing for oven time right before Thanksgiving dinner. It is also fabulous served at room temperature–so don’t sweat trying to serve it warm.
Howdy! It’s Kathy from Beyond the Chicken Coop and I’m getting ready for grilling and picnic season! No matter what’s on your menu you always need some great side dishes to go along with the main course. This corn salad is one of my favorite go-to sides. It’s quick. It’s easy and it’s always a hit!
Every Thanksgiving I get asked to bring a side dish to Thanksgiving dinner; this is something I am very thankful for! I’m going to let my mom and mother-in-law handle the heavy duty Thanksgiving dinner items for as long as possible. Preparing and cooking a turkey for 20+ people is not a skill I’ve developed yet, but side dishes? Those I can handle.
My son, Shane, has been on this pasta salad kick. So, we went on the search for exactly the kind of recipe that he would love… and, we found it. Pasta, packed with meat, olives, cheese, green peppers, and drizzled with Italian dressing! We found the recipe on All Recipes, but ended up changing the…
Hello again OSSS readers! I’m Kristi from making it in the mountains and I’m back again to share another favorite recipe! This quick dish has been an absolute life saver as we trudge through month two of moving (you can check out a sneak peek of our new home here). Yes, you read that right … TWO MONTHS! Ugh! Anyway, all whining aside, this pasta salad has become our go-to side dish simply because it’s SO easy to whip up a big ol’ batch of it, not to mention it’s SUPER yummy and goes with pretty much everything! I just know y’all are going to LOVE it too!
Did you know world Nutella Day was February 5th? You’re not alone, neither did I!
My children love Nutella so I’m always looking for new ways to use it. Typically, I use it alone on a sandwich or with peanut butter. I created an easy Nutella ganache recipe to dip some favorite snacks in. We dipped strawberries, animal crackers and pretzels- all were a hit. Ganache can be made with a few simple ingredients. One note- it doesn’t harden like tempered chocolate; it’s a bit softer. You should refrigerate to set it before serving.
These biscuits are soft, buttery, cheesy, and loaded with the delicious flavors of apple and bacon. They come together in a saucepan in just minutes, you bake them in muffin tins, and they make the perfect accompaniment to any dish. Namely turkey, or potatoes, or cranberries, or stuffing, or salad…! As for the theme, I’m thinking bacon! Can you really go wrong??
Come check out this delicious recipe for yourself!
Happy July, everyone! It’s Samantha from Five Heart Home, and I’m always happy to have the chance to visit with y’all when my monthly Or So She Says post rolls around! Today I brought over a to-die-for seasonal side dish that showcases prime summer produce in an unbelievably tasty way.
These Balsamic Roasted Tomatoes are beyond delectable, y’all. Fresh ingredients and a simple preparation often yield the most delicious results, and that is certainly true of this recipe! All that’s required is to thickly slice some ripe, plump tomatoes, scatter a bit of minced garlic on top, and then sprinkle them with extra-virgin olive oil, flavorful balsamic vinegar, salt, pepper, and sugar. After roasting at a high temperature, the finished tomatoes become caramelized with an intensely concentrated tomato flavor that is simultaneously sweet and savory. The garlic plays off of such flavors beautifully, as do the chopped fresh herbs that garnish the finished dish.
I’m a little snobbish, when it comes to Potato Salad. I don’t do sweet pickles, sweet anything, or onions. I’m all about lots of dill pickles, hard boiled eggs, and red potatoes. Mmmm, baby. And, my mama makes it right. All the good stuff, PLUS her secret ingredient, Salad Supreme Seasoning. Lots of it. I’m talking the whole dang bottle, hence the orangey-yellow color. Don’t let it scare you. It’s the best. I could make a full meal out of this potato salad, forget the whole ‘side dish’ thing.
I hated baked potatoes as a kid. Whenever my mom made them, they were met with groans and eye rolls. Poor Mom. Now, as so often happens, I love baked potatoes, especially twice baked potatoes. These potatoes are a Southwestern-inspired twist on twice baked potatoes. Instead of the usual butter and sour cream, these guys…
