One of most clear way to choose a side dish is to caught at your main dish (pasta, chicken, seared tofu) and pick more different. If you’re cooking pasta, go for a simple vegetable . Making steak? Go for more light. If you’re making stir-fry with rice, it must not a best idea to also make a rice salad.

One make sure is also can apply to cooking process . You don’t want to overcommit your oven by making to do list three dishes at once in there, or be rounding four pans on the cooking items . But often you can made a dish do more often .
