Some people think that Thanksgiving is only about the turkey, but this holiday is truly all about the sides. Sides comprise the majority of a Thanksgiving feast. Some sides get more love than others because you just can’t seem to get enough of them. What are you bringing to your Thanksgiving gathering this year? If you don’t know we have some killer sides that you can make. Your side dish might even be the life of the party.
Most Thanksgiving sides are loaded with fats, unhealthy carbs, and tons of dairy products. A lot of people will argue that those ingredients are what make the dishes taste good. Those ingredients are also the primary cause of weight gain during the holiday season. These dishes, which cause weight gain and impair the digestive system, will more than likely adorn the Thanksgiving table you sit at. You can, however, change the game by making some of our favorite sides. They are truly fantastic.

This recipe is a holiday favorite here at Dherbs. The sweet potato portion is delightfully creamy and isn’t too rich or filled with unnecessary fats. The crunchy topping takes this dish to another level. Enjoy it this holiday season.

Vegan Cauliflower Mash
Cauliflower mashes easily, but you have to add seasonings in order for it take on the Thanksgiving persona, so to speak. Garlic is your friend in this recipe, so don’t be shy when using it.
