Wedged Baked Potato This is bonkers! Cut potatoes almost all the way through, drizzle with olive oil and butter (I used truffle oil and butter from grassfed cows), sprinkle sea or pink salt, pepper, and anything else you like (I sprinkled paprika and parsley). Bake at 425 for 40-50 minutes (depending on oven and how crunchy you want them). If you are going for cheesy, put that at the very last couple of minutes or broil for a minute. #wedgedbakedpotato #appetizers #sides #glu

Cabbage Noodles Everyone devoured these cabbage noodles at my house! I thinly cut half a cabbage and added it into a pot that's been heated in one tablespoon of truffle oil on medium to high heat. After I added the cabbage and mixed it so that the oil coated it, I added a couple of tbsp if organic chicken broth, a teaspoon of raw apple cider vinegar, salt, and pepper. I covered the pan and set the heat to low until the cabbage was soft. #cabbagenoodles #sides #glutenfree

Roasted Butternut Squash Roasted butternut squash is perfect for a chilly night. I'm calling dibs on the burnt bits! I used avocado oil because I was out of olive oil. Salt, pepper, parsley. Roasted on 400 degrees for 45-50 minutes (a lot depends on your oven, so start checking at 35 minutes). Going to serve alongside turkey and steamed asparagus. #roastedbutternutsquash #sides #glutenfree
