"Not sure what to serve with lasagna to make it a meal? I've spent years honing the craft of constructing a meal with the right sides.

"You've got to complement and contrast the main dish with just the right flavors, colors, and ingredients. And it's got to be easy enough to make while making the main event. To help fill your table, here are my top side dishes and salads to go with lasagna! They feature fresh, seasonal vegetables to contrast the heavy, cheesy main dish: from my favorite chopped salad recipe to good old garlic bread."
Lasagna pairs best with sides that contrast its heavy, cheesy richness using fresh, seasonal vegetables and bright flavors. Salads add acidity, crunch, and color to balance texture and cut richness. Roasted, sautéed, or crisp raw vegetables provide contrast without overpowering the main dish. Garlic bread and rustic breads supply comforting starch and toasty flavor. Side dishes should be simple enough to prepare alongside the lasagna to avoid extra kitchen strain. Combining fresh greens, vibrant vegetables, and a warm bread creates a balanced, visually appealing meal.
