For the big turkey day dinner, my family usually sticks with the staples and family traditions, but then will throw in a new side dish or two. Here is a collection of some of my favorites that are traditional Thanksgiving sides with a twist.

Roasted Butternut Squash Salad with Warm Cider Vinaigrette

Sweet Potato and Sage - Butter Casserole

Balsamic Roasted Brussel Spouts and Carrots

I make this dish all the time. It is my favorite way to make brussel sprouts!

Roasted Cauliflower "Rice" with Garlic and Lemon

I never thought I would get on the cauliflower rice bandwagon but I tried this one and it is delicious. Mr. Wright loved it too! Roasted it gives it so much more nutty flavor.
