Turkey sandwiches are a popular choice for a quick and easy meal. But so many people easily get confused about what to serve as side dishes.

Do you go the traditional route? Or do you get creative and try something new?

Well, my wife and I have always had this debate. She is such a foodie and loves to try new things, while I like to stick with what I know and love.

This isn’t what you think it is – two lovers at loggerheads over what to have for dinner. Because more often than not, I have had to eat the proverbial humble pie. Her suggestions have repeatedly won me over and I am the better.

As gratitude for the good done to me and my taste buds, I am sharing with you what to serve with turkey sandwiches, so it saves you some time (and arguments!) in your own household.

Coleslaw

At first, I hated coleslaw. I thought it was too vinegary, and the mayonnaise made it all too gloopy. But my wife showed me that coleslaw could be so much more than what I had experienced before.

She introduced me to a version with yogurt, which gave it a nice tang without being overpowering. And she added in some shredded carrot and red cabbage for a bit of sweetness and crunch.
