Amish Side Dishes

Take a ride on the wild side!  Actually, Amish sides aren’t usually wild, but they are creative and inventive, basic and filling. Side dishes are those wonderful “add-ons” that round out a meal.  Meatloaf isn’t complete without a fresh veggie dish on the side or some mashed potatoes.  A chicken loaf has to have some peas to give it some balance. Sides are all about adding balance to a meal.

Amish tables are a paradises of sides. Amish after-church meals feature dozens of “sides” that complement the main course: bright yellow corn, fresh broccoli, beans of all sorts, along with crumbles, and delights, and mash-ups.  Amish cooks know how to take center stage, but they are also stars on the side.

So whether it be these wonderfully filling and flavorful Parmesan potatoes or these Der Dutchman Marinated Carrots that taste like candy, there is a side waiting for you on Amish365!
