    Side Dishes

    There are times when one main dish just isn't enough, that's when you need the perfect side dish recipe to round out the menu. Start off your meal with an easy Cauliflower Soup with Caramelized Onions, Za'atar & Feta Cheese Pies, or Crispy Roasted Potatoes.

    If you're looking for a grain-based side dish recipe, you have to make this Carrot Rice, the classic Middle Eastern side dish Hashweh Rice, or this delicious Baghali Polo Dill Rice.
