Vegetable Sides Full of Flavor (and a Little Butter)

Vegetables don’t have to play second fiddle. These recipes turn everyday veggies into star side dishes—whether they’re sautéed, roasted, or glazed to perfection. Easy enough for weeknights and special enough for holidays.

Start with my simple yet delicious Sautéed Garlic Butter Green Beans, crisp-tender and packed with flavor, or add a sweet and savory touch with Honey Dijon Glazed Carrots with Bacon—a side dish that always disappears fast.
