Home and Family : Simple sides make for easy entertaining
Seasonal celebrations provide a perfect opportunity to entertain at home. Just remember, the key to a successful and stress-free soirée is to keep it simple and think “side dishes.” Side dishes are a great way to show your versatility and shine in the kitchen. Prepare a meal with a simple roast or store-bought entrée, such as a glazed ham or roasted turkey, and you’ve got a terrific spread that will keep your guests coming back for more. Broccoli ’n’ Cheese Casserole is an easy and delicious spin on a plain broccoli side dish. Plus, it’s a great way to get your younger guests to eat their veggies. For a dish that is simple, but full of flavor, try Broth Simmered Rice. Prepared with Swanson Broth instead of water, it is easy to customize to complement any main course. For a tasty twist, make it “Florentine” by adding Italian seasoning, spinach and Parmesan cheese. Three-Cheese Pasta Bake is a creamy pasta dish that is sure to satisfy. Made with Campbell’s Cream of Mushroom soup, this crowd-pleaser has only six ingredients and can be ready in just 25 minutes.
