Spencer Watts shares four make ahead side dishes perfect for the holiday season

We know prepping food for multiple gatherings can be stressful and time-consuming! Comfort Food host Spencer Watts shares no-fuss side dishes to help make your holiday spread drool-worthy.

Red cabbage tart

This is a red cabbage tart made with candied pecans and a Gorgonzola royale, a simple mixture of cream, eggs, and cheese. This can also be used in a quiche for another meal, brunch, lunch or dinner. 

Whipped scalloped potatoes gratin

Sweet potatoes are a great contrast in sweetness and colour. We all love some sweet potato dishes at the holidays, and when they are scalloped, they are incredible as the topping on this dish.

Moroccan kale Caesar salad

Winter salads help kick-start your hunger! A kicked-up dressing that is tangy makes you want more! Lettuce and vegetables like kale are hearty and healthy, but they hold lots of sauce, which is a good thing. 

Maple buttermilk corn pudding

The corn pudding is at its best when smooth, and using a blender is the perfect tool. Not only is it easy, it will give you the ideal texture.
