Pan-Seared Brussels Sprouts with Brown ButterGarlic and Sour Cream Mashed Potatoes
This year has certainly been one for the books and there is so much to be thankful for; being alive and well is one of them. This thanksgiving is so much more different than every other one as we are pretty much forced to have small gatherings away from our loved ones. I did a poll on my instagram asking my followers whether they were 1) having a large gathering with family because you miss them 2) only doing a small thanksgiving with immediate family members 3) not having thanksgiving at all this year. To my pleasant surprise I had more people say that they were NOT having thanksgiving at all this year. However, more people are spending time with their immediate family members for thanksgiving. So much has changed in a matter of months. Thanksgiving is one those holidays where so many family and friends gather together from near and far. For so many of us this wouldn’t be the case this year. For me, thanksgiving will be held for a party of 4 (hubs, mom, baby and myself). Hopefully we can all keep our traditions alive through technology either Skype or zoom even thought we are physically away from our loved ones.
I wanted to share with you guys two of my favorite thanksgiving side dishes that are super easy to make and served with almost anything. For the record! I am convinced that not all mashed potatoes are created equally as it differs depending on the texture you like. I personally love to switch things up when it comes to mashed potatoes. When I have it as a side my consistency is always “a bit thick and fluffy” but when it’s the main dish I usually like to make it “a bit lighter and fluffy”. I personally love fresh garlic in my mashed potatoes; it’s amazingly delicious. The sour cream adds an extra deliciousness. I love to give mine a quick whip with my handheld mixer. To serve just sprinkle fresh herbs such as scallions or chives; thank me later, enjoy!
