Top Thanksgiving Side Dishes Amarillo Can’t Live Without

The Thanksgiving holiday is upon us, and everyone is gearing up for a delicious meal. That meal could be cooked by the chefs in the family, slaving away for days to make sure it's perfect.  It could be cooked by someone else who knows how to cook and heated on Turkey Day, or it could be served up in a restaurant.

Why Side Dishes Make Thanksgiving Special

No matter where you get your Thanksgiving meal, the thing that makes it perfect is the side dishes. For most people, you're going to have meat, whether it is turkey or ham, or a different type of protein. But it's the sides that make Thanksgiving Dinner.

We did a little research to find out about favorite sides. First, we asked you, and then we scanned through other local social media posts to find out everyone's favorite Thanksgiving side dishes.

From potato dishes in every form to the perfect plate of vegetables, these are the side dishes Amarillo residents have to have on their Thanksgiving table.

Traditions and Giving Thanks

Thanksgiving is a day of food, football, naps, and the most important part, being thankful. For most, it's a day of gathering around a table with your family, friends, and drunk uncle Frank. For others, it is volunteering and serving Thanksgiving dinner to those less fortunate. No matter how you celebrate Thanksgiving, make sure you give thanks.

Enjoy all your Thanksgiving sides, and we are thankful for you.
