Today's post is a guest post by Wendy Woerner of Southern Test Kitchen. I'm so excited to try some of the great holiday side dishes that she is recommending!
33 Favorite Holiday Side Dishes
The Christmas season is one of those times when we all enjoy partaking of the many and varied side dishes that family and friends bring to our table. Here are several different types of side dishes from which to choose and change things up this year. Perhaps you will begin a new tradition! I know I'm going to add a few new dishes to my table.
