After the Independence Day festivities and barbecues, many people are ready to move indoors for a home-cooked meal at a table. One of the favorite meals Americans choose includes fried chicken. It so happens that today is National Fried Chicken Day! It is as American as apple pie. Whether you deep fry it, pan fry it, or get it to go, fried chicken just cannot taste bad.<\/p>\n

Now, what do you eat with<\/a> yours?<\/p>\n

Potatoes<\/h2>\n

Well, fast-food establishments have it right. People like mashed potatoes with their fried chicken. When eating outdoors, one will take potato salad as a replacement.<\/p>\n

Beans<\/h3>\n

This is another accompaniment that restaurants claim from homes. Green beans fresh from the garden are a top choice. However, baked beans will meet the expectations when needed.<\/p>\n

Cornbread<\/h3>\n

Cornbread is a southern favorite to accompany fried chicken. While some prefer mashed potatoes and gravy with white, fluffy dinner rolls, cornbread beats biscuits as another side, although many people will whip up a batch of biscuits for the meal.<\/p>\n

Summer Salad<\/h3>\n

A fresh green summer salad sets off the meal perfectly. Lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, and peppers from your garden add color and texture to the meal.<\/p>\n

Extras<\/h3>\n

French fries with chicken? Yes! Macaroni salad? Yes! Fried okra? Yes! Homemade bread? Yes!<\/p>\n

The bottom line: everything goes well with fried chicken. When you plan tonight’s dinner, do not fret about what to have with the chicken. Everything will work!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
