You’re ready to make dinner and you have your protein all figured out, but what about the sides? The side dishes are my absolute favorite! I feel like I could go to a party or any holiday meal and just eat all the side dishes… YUM! The more variety & color I have on my plate the better! Vegetables are not necessarily everyone’s go-to, but change it up every once and a while add spices to the recipe, and tada there usually gobbled up before the meal is over! If not, they make a perfect snack or side dish for lunch the next day!

Seasonings:
Seasonings are the name of the game in our house! We always mix it up and add spices to pair any dish with our meal.

Vegetable Side Recipes:
These recipes are great to quickly throw together for any meal. Flavorful and with a seasoning that everyone will enjoy. Three ingredients is all this recipe calls for!!! I often bake them together especially the broccoli and spaghetti squash since both recipes call for the oven to be at 425°.

Instructions:
- 1. In a Medium Skillet add the green beans, drizzle olive oil on top, and add seasoning.
- 2. Sautee on medium heat for 5 mins or until tender and done to your preference. I prefer a little bit of crunch to my green beans.
