More great side dish ideas is one request often made by our readers and are always a welcome addition to a recipe arsenal.

So often we have the same roast chicken, beef or turkey. That’s when the side dishes become even more important.

Great side dishes add interest to what might otherwise be a rather mundane meal.

As part of a recent Sunday dinner we enjoyed these potatoes with roasted vegetables and a very delicious Lemon Sage Butter Roasted Turkey. Both of these dishes would be ideal for Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner.

Lemon Sage Butter Roasted Turkey with all the fixings.

The lemon and roasted garlic for these potatoes actually came from roasting the vegetables that we served with it. If you are making this as a side dish for another meal, they are easily roasted on their own.
