7 Amazing Veggie Sides / Healthy & Delicious
With the festive season coming up there’s definitely the need for delicious veggie sides. As a non-meat-eating person I personally heavily rely on those when going to family dinners.

Pumpkin Gnocchi / Kale, Pumpkin Seeds & Garlic
Gnocchi are everywhere right now. And pumpkin, pumpkin’s everywhere too. Pumpkin and gnocchi, everyone is either cooking gnocchi or pumpkin or even pumpkin gnocchi. If you’ve ever been invited to my table I would have probably served Gnocchi, as they’re my go-to whenever I cook for guests. Gnocchi impress, as people seem to think…
