While most people feel that the turkey is the center of attention at any Thanksgiving dinner, I feel that the sides are the best part.  You really can’t go wrong with traditional mashed potatoes, corn pudding, stuffing, brussels sprouts, green beans, and cranberry  But this year, why not step it up a notch with an original flavorful, thanksgiving side?   This cumin spiced roasted carrots and chickpeas dish will sure to be a crowd favorite.  Slightly adapted from Jessica Seinfeld’s original recipe, it is easy, delicious and makes a beautiful presentation.  Enjoy!an
