Colorful Thanksgiving Side Dishes

Table of colorful thanksgiving dishes

By Jodie Fitz

The Saratoga Farmers’ Market is bursting with a wide selection of beautiful, and colorful, produce.  As Thanksgiving approaches in three short weeks, now is the time to experiment with bringing a delightful array of these delicious bites to your table.  

By adding new and diverse dishes, produce not only brings a fresh bite to the plate, it brings a festively fun feel that can be aesthetically pleasing to the eye.

Here are three fairly easy side dish ideas and recipes that incorporate orange, yellow, purple, green and red at the table.  Whether you choose to incorporate these recipes, or research your own, think about the various colors you want to adorn yourThanksgiving table before you begin your recipe planning.

Keep in mind that many root vegetables and various squashes can be purchased in advance and kept until the big day.
