When my husband and I tied the knot last year, we didn't want anything lavish. Both of us did the big wedding and reception thing with our first spouses. This time around, we wanted a home wedding, complete with an intimate reception in the backyard. For the reception, we chose to hire a local caterer. From the first meeting, we knew the caterer would make sure everything was perfect. She came up with a menu that allowed for the dietary needs of our varied group of friends. She designed and ordered the cake, and even took care of setting up the tables and chairs. All we had to do was show up. If you and your beloved are planning something simple at home, it pays to work with the right caterer. Let me share how we worked with ours, and why we would do it again without hesitation.
Most people enjoy a good burger, wrapping the patty in all sorts of delicious toppings. But while burgers are delicious on their own, they can be even better when paired with the right side dishes.
This article covers some ideas to make your burger night much more delicious.
Fries
What better side dish to pair with a juicy burger than a plate of crispy, salty fries? Whether you prefer thick-cut steak fries, classic french fries, or crinkle-cut chips, these delicious morsels will take your burger to the next level.
To make them even better, you could order some seasonings or dipping sauces to give your fries an extra flavor kick. A well-established burger restaurant may even fry their fries in beef fat for an extra-special taste. And if you are feeling extra adventurous, why not try sweet potato fries for a truly unique flavor? These could have a touch of cinnamon or a sprinkle of sugar to give them an extra-sweet kick.
If you don't want to go the traditional route, you could also try some healthier alternatives. Baked sweet potato wedges are a great substitute for standard french fries, as are roasted veggie chips. Just make sure to order plenty of ketchup or dipping sauces to go along with them.
Onion Rings
For something a bit crunchier, why not serve up some onion rings? Onion rings are a classic accompaniment to burgers and offer a nice contrast to the tender meat. They are the perfect balance of crispiness and sweetness that will have you reaching for more.
You can go for the traditional deep-fried version or try healthier alternatives like baked onion rings. And if you want to add a bit of extra flavor, you could try a variety of seasonings or sauces. Barbecue sauce, ketchup, and ranch dressing all go great with onion rings.
Salads
Burgers and salads go together like peanut butter and jelly. Not only does a salad provide a nice contrast to the burger's flavor, but it can also add some needed nutrients to your meal.
You can go for a classic green salad with lettuce, tomatoes, and cucumbers or order a creative mix. A fruit salad with melon, pineapple, and berries is always a great option. And if you want something a bit heartier, try a bean salad with black beans, kidney beans, and corn.
Finally, you can't forget the dressing. Ranch is always a classic, but honey mustard, balsamic vinaigrette, and Italian dressing also go great with salads.
