When a brisk fall breeze makes cold sides sound too light, a hot pan or bowl next to supper can do more of the work. These 17 sides cover layered potatoes, mashed vegetables, fritters, biscuits, cornbread, stuffing, and creamy greens. Some are quick enough for a weeknight, while others bake longer and suit slower evenings or holiday-style suppers. The range keeps the side of the plate warm, substantial, and varied without turning every meal into the same potato dish.
