Green Bean, Carrot and Mushroom Medley by Salad FoodieA quick-to-fix green bean side dish or vegetarian main dish. I like to use my steamer for the beans and carrots, but they could also be boiled briefly and drained. This makes a beautiful presentation with interesting flavor combinations. The real trick is getting the seasoning right. Experiment with your favorite herb combinations,… |

Glazed Carrots by Nancy MiyasakiI made these carrots to be a sweet, vegetable side to go with the Caribbean Pork we made tonight. I wanted something that would be sweet like plantains, and these did the job perfectly. I adapted this from a Cook's Illustrated recipe, and I think the technique is a good one. They'd be nice as a a side with any grilled meat. |

Honey-Ginger Glazed Carrots by John SpottiswoodThis is a standard side dish for us when we're serving an asian-inspired meal. It's also great with any grilled meat.

If you make this, it will likely become… |

Green Beans with Basil and Tomato by John SpottiswoodThis is an attractive and tasty side dish. The butter, basil and tomato adds a nice flavor boost to the green beans. I've made them with garlic salt and regular kosher salt, both are delicious. If you want to spice it up, add more black pepper or substitute crushed red pepper for the black pepper. |

Spinach Balls by GlennFound this on the web at mydailymoment.com and decided to give it a try since I love spinach. It was easy to prepare but I don't think I got the spinach fully defrosted and "squeezed dry." I overcooked them by at least 10 minutes and they never did get bound together tight. I think it was the water so I have not yet modified the… |

Carrots provide vitamin A and plenty of fiber, making them excellent side dishes to support healthy eating. Make sure you don't overcook your carrots; they taste best when they are al… |

Grilled Baby Artichokes with Chefs Dressing by Robyn MedlinThe grill adds so much flavor to the chokes that you don’t really need a sauce, but I am a sucker for a dipping sauce so I made this yummy sauce to go with it inspired by the Chef’s Dressing at Houston’s Restaurant. If you don’t feel like making the dipping sauce, the chokes are perfectly wonderful with a drizzle of olive oil, sea… |
