Who says that ham, lamb or another entrée has to be the star of the Easter table? Read on for 9 delicious sides that could easily upstage the main course.
No. 1: Laura Prepon’s Garlic-Roasted Beets

These delicious and extremely healthy veggies could not be easier. Laura just dices her beets, tosses them with olive oil, garlic and salt and pepper, and roasts.
No. 2: Graham Elliott’s Shaved Broccoli Salad

For this dish, Graham shreds broccoli to make a salad base, then adds pomegranate seeds, shaved parmesan, slivered almonds and a honey-dijon dressing. Simple and super healthy.
No. 3: Spicy Herb-Roasted Haricots Verts

These spicy roasted green beans are a flavorful and fresh companion to your Easter entrée.
No. 4: Marc Murphy's Zucchini, Pecorino, and Mint Salad

This creative salad features zucchini cut into spaghetti-like strands tossed with a dressing of olive oil, lemon and mint and topped with shaved pecorino. Your guests will flock to this light dish!
No. 5: Brussels Sprouts with Pancetta and Balsamic Vinegar

These quick-cooking brussels sprouts are mouthwateringly delish and give you extra time to focus on the main course.
No. 6: Chef Ludo’s Potato Cake with Onions

If you have the time, and you want to wow your dinner guests, make Ludo's spiral-layered potato cake. By cooking this glamourous "cake" slowly in clarified butter, you will achieve a French "confit."
No. 7: Jacques Pépin's Garlic Mashed Potatoes

Be careful when you make these delectable garlic mashed potatoes -- your family will demand you make them every year! But since the recipe couldn't be easier, we say go for it!
No. 8: Ryan Scott's Green Bean Casserole with Celery Root and Bacon
Rachael Ray Show
If your family loves green bean casserole, but you want to change it up, try this updated version with a homemade celery root and mushroom cream sauce, and breadcrumbs combined with fried onions for the topping. Yum!
No. 9: Curtis Stone’s Roasted Cauliflower, Broccoli and Pasta Bake with White Cheddar
Rachael Ray Show
This is a side that could be a main dish if you are looking a vegetarian entree. The vegetables are roasted separately to develop maximum flavor.
Tip: No need to buy pre-made breadcrumbs. Just make your own with the leftover bread you already have in your pantry.
