I'm not sure about every one else, but I have the hardest time thinking of side dishes to go with my meals every day! When I was growing up, we had at least 2 or 3 sides with every meal, every day! And I like to do the same for my family! But I found myself picking the same few over and over! So I made up a sheet to put in my recipe binder to help me with new ideas! When I sit down to plan my menu every week, I have this with me, and it becomes a lot easier to just pick one or two, instead of having to come up with some!
Or here's the list so you can copy and add to it yourself!
1. Green salad

I absolutely LOVE this simple idea!! Going through my recipe books takes too long and we end up eating the same thing. Doing this tonight :)
Thanks for sharing this. I need a quick reference like this when struggling to create a grocery list.
I'm new to your blog (found you off a Pintrest pin) and I love this! Your blog is so cute and so full of awesome things!
Thank you soo much for this! I'm always so lame and just serve dinner with a salad. This will help me out so much! :)
I am just seeing this. Awesome list. What is green salad though? Is that just regular salad (lettuce, tomato, etc.)?
