Easy COVID Thanksgiving Side Dish Recipe Ideas

With the unique circumstances with COVID-19, making Thanksgiving meals easier to prepare is essential. This holiday's goal is to make easy Thanksgiving side dish recipe ideas that minimize preparation time on the day of the event and reduces contact with food by the host. Prepping food the day before and getting the items together to throw into a pot to cook will minimize the host's time from lingering over the food while cooking. Today, we are sharing 5 recipe types that will do just that.

Note: The recipe TITLES with CAPITALS are from our blog.

5 COVID Thanksgiving Side Dish Recipe Ideas

Smokers Side Dish Recipe

If you have an electric smoker, you can prep food and place them into the smoker for a delicious and flavorful Thanksgiving. Some Thanksgiving side dish vegetables you can smoke are cauliflower, portobello mushrooms, corn, and sweet potato. I found a post that talks about how to smoke vegetables and fruit on a Masterbuilt Smoker. Check it out here.

Roasting or Sheet Pan Side Dish Recipe

Using the oven to cook various vegetable side dishes that have already been seasoned and ready to go, is an easy way to help your food from getting overly exposed to others. Below are some of our favorite side dish root vegetables that are roasted in a sheet pan in the oven. Check them out.
