OK, I’ll admit to being a bit of a control freak when it comes to Thanksgiving. I’ve always ended up either cooking the whole dang dinner or contributing way too many dishes to what was supposed to be a potluck, fueled by an anxiety of not having all the “favorite” sides. If you’re in the same boat, fear not—we’ve come up with 10 of the easiest, last-minute Thanksgiving sides you can put together without breaking a sweat.
These recipes include ridiculously simple cranberry sauce (in case someone decides to crack open a can of the jellified stuff), fancy-sounding French green beans with almonds, impossibly fluffy mashed potatoes, and roasted Brussels sprouts. Trust me, you will have enough sides.
