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

This 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 juggling four pans on the cooking items . But sometimes you can make a dish do double-duty .
