Grilled Brussels Sprouts with Pistachios and Pomegranate

 

Crunchy pistachios and juicy pomegranate seeds brighten up grilled Brussels sprouts. The red and green look right at home on a Christmas table, and the tart pomegranate is a welcome bite alongside a rich Thanksgiving dinner.

Grilled Green Beans

 

A little char brings out the flavor of green beans while keeping them crisp-tender. They’re a simple green side to serve alongside turkey, ham, or a roast.

Grilled Carrots

 

The grill brings out the natural sweetness of carrots and gives them a little char. Pile them onto a platter for an easy side that goes with just about anything on the holiday table.

Grilled Hasselback Potatoes with Garlic and Parmesan

 

Thin slices give these potatoes plenty of edges to crisp on the grill while the centers stay tender. Garlic and Parmesan tuck into the folds, so every bite gets a little of both.

Sweet Potato Bacon Bites

 

Sweet potatoes and salty bacon make a sweet-and-savory bite. Set out a platter while guests are waiting for dinner, or serve them alongside the turkey for a bite-sized take on a Thanksgiving favorite.

Grilled Sweet Potato Rounds

 

Serve tender grilled sweet potato rounds over a bed of Greek yogurt and spoon on a red onion relish with lemon, mint, and Fresno chile. The cool yogurt and bright relish balance the sweetness of the potatoes.

Grilled Honey Butternut Squash

 

Honey brings out the natural sweetness of butternut squash, and the grill adds a little char. It’s a colorful side for the Thanksgiving table and pairs just as easily with a Christmas ham.

Grilled Pearl Onions

 

Pearl onions turn mellow and sweet on the grill. Spoon them around sliced turkey or a roast so guests can pick up a few with each serving, or pass them in a small bowl with the other sides.

While the turkey or roast finishes in the oven, put a side or two on the grill.

By the time the main dish is carved, you’ll have something hot off the grill to pass around the table.
