Side Dishes
Chicken Broccoli Pasta Salad
Chicken broccoli pasta salad is the perfect compliment to any cookout! It combines tender shredded chicken, crunchy broccoli, crisp red onions, perfectly cooked pasta and creamy dressing to make a simple, yet totally irresistible pasta salad!
Black Bean and Corn Salsa
This black bean and corn salsa is a great way to switch up your boring old salsa routine! Black beans, corn and spicy tomatoes with chilies make this salsa fresh and irresistible!
Quinoa Fried Rice
This recipe is very simple and could be made ahead of time and heated up. It would also be great for meal prep bowls.
Mashed Potatoes
These mashed potatoes taste awesome with gravy, but they have so much flavor and fluffiness that gravy isn’t all that necessary.
Bundt Pan Stuffing
This stuffing gets a nice golden crust while the inside stays soft and fluffy. Once you make it in a Bundt pan, you’ll wonder why you didn’t do it sooner!
Vegetable Grain Casserole
Vegetable grain casserole is just that: vegetables and grains baked to perfection with vegetable broth and seasonings.
Italian Hoagie Dip
One of my favorite and easy Italian party foods to make is this Italian hoagie dip. It is all the goodness of an Italian sandwich, but in the form of a dip.
Cheesy Dill Twice Baked Potatoes
These potatoes are VERY cheesy because they have cream cheese and cheddar cheese in them (and even more cheese melted on top). It’s like a cheese-palooza!
Italian Brown Sugar Chicken Tenders
These chicken tenders have a unique style of their own. They are slightly sweet, satisfyingly salty and they are baked to perfection.
