Lots of cooking and baking is going to be done over the next few weeks so I thought I’d share some of my favorite ideas from around the interwebs. These aren’t just any old dishes though, what’s amazing about this (beside the fact that they are delicious) is that they all require 5 or fewer ingredients to prepare. Anything too complex and I’m likely to give up before I get started when I’m trying to push about 12 things out of the kitchen at the same time so these side dishes will be perfect to fill any gaps in your menu and the tummies of those sitting at your table.
