What would a Thanksgiving Turkey be without Thanksgiving sides? Thanksgiving dinner really is all about the sides, and I love having a few options on the table that are just as delicious as the classics. Whether you’re looking for something naturally gluten-free, adding more veggies to your holiday spread, or just want a few lighter options alongside the usual favorites, these healthy gluten-free Thanksgiving sides have you covered. From roasted vegetables to mashed potatoes, there’s something everyone will want to add to their plate.
Healthy Gluten-Free Thanksgiving Sides
Whether you’re hosting Thanksgiving or bringing a dish to share, these gluten-free side dishes make it easy to put together a holiday menu everyone can enjoy. I’ve rounded up some of my favorite veggie-forward recipes, flavorful salads, and classic-inspired sides that don’t skimp on flavor. They’re easy to make, made with simple ingredients, and perfect for rounding out your Thanksgiving table.
Roasted Veggies with Bacon and Pepita Pesto
This gluten-free side is an easy, delicious way to get more veggies on your Thanksgiving table. The roasted vegetables are simple on their own, but crispy bacon and homemade pepita pesto take everything up a notch. You’ll love having this dish on your table this holiday season.
Sourdough Sausage & Mushroom Stuffing
Stuffing is my favorite Thanksgiving side, so this recipe will be on the menu every year. I like using sourdough, but replace with your favorite gluten-free bread for a gluten-free stuffing that you’ll love. Be sure to pair this with my GF, DF Bone Broth Gravy. You’ll have everyone coming back for seconds with this one.
Green Bean Sauté with Sun-Dried Tomatoes and Pine Nuts
Creamy Buttery Mashed Potatoes
I can personally promise these mashed potatoes 100% live up to their name. They’re creamy and buttery (with no dairy) and just so fluffy and delicious. Without a doubt, this will be the side that has everyone coming back for seconds, making for the perfect addition to any Thanksgiving dinner menu or holiday meal all season long.
