Sweet Potato Beignets
If you're sick of sweet potato casserole, sweet potato souffle, candied sweet potatoes, or whatever else during the holidays, these little guys can be the perfect change. The batter doesn't take too long to whip up and they don't take long to fry. I usually like to serve them with a Cane Syrup Gastrique and a sprinkle of powdered sugar. But, some jam/jelly or whipped cream would also work with yummy results.

Oven Baked Potato Wedges
These are a perfect side dish for all things sandwich and steak (or just because you want some fries). I paired these with my Fried Chicken Sandwich and dipped them in some "fancy" ketchup (which is just a little Worcestershire and hot sauce added to ketchup). To make them a little bit healthier I chose to bake these instead of fry them. No matter what you pair them with, these make a tasty side!

Cornbread and Andouille Dressing
Out of all the side dishes that are on the table at Thanksgiving, this dressing is far and away my favorite. A perfect compliment to the turkey and more importantly, to the gravy. Also, an absolute must have for your day after sandwich.

Muffuletta Pasta Salad
If you ask someone to name a sandwich from New Orleans, chances are pretty good the two things you'll hear will be poboy and muffuletta. The delicious muffuletta was born on the banks of the Mississippi in Nola and remains one of two of its most famous sandwich exports. And believe it or not, the muffuletta translates perfectly into this yummy pasta salad.
