	Easy Pan Fried Tomatoes by Nancy Miyasaki This recipe is incredibly easy and really tasty. We're healthy eaters, so frying tomatoes isn't the first thing that comes to mind. But you have got to taste these. Amazing! Disclosure: we used fresh tomatoes from our garden that were really flavorful. You may not get the same results with less flavorful tomatoes. We served with…	11 votes 4 reviews 1 comment 21639 views
	Green Beans with Basil and Tomato by John Spottiswood This 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.	9 votes 4 reviews 3 comments 7519 views
	Shredded Brussel Sprouts by Nancy Miyasaki If you've never had shredded brussel sprouts before, you're in for a treat! These are really tasty. They have less of the bitter taste you get with whole or halved brussel sprouts, so people who are not brussel sprout fans may still like them. And brussel sprout lovers like me will still thoroughly enjoy them! To save time, use a…	4 votes 1 review 9638 views
	Honey-Ginger Glazed Carrots by John Spottiswood This is a standard side dish for us when we're serving an asian-inspired meal. It's also great with any grilled meat.

	Glazed Carrots by Nancy Miyasaki I 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.	2 votes 1 review 2 comments 7644 views

	Sauteed Swiss Chard with Onions by K. Garner This is Yummy and makes your Swiss Chard taste the best it can. This is a four-star recipe from Epicurious. The picture shows brown bits that might be mistaken for bacon; those are the caramelized onion pieces. By the way, I fixed a baked potato with butter and sour cream and put a mound of this on top; it pretty much rocked.	1 vote 1 review 3097 views

	Mexican Corn and Potatoes by Robyn Savoie In the Summer roast the fresh corn and while doing that roast those Serrano's. The additional smoky flavor will only enhance this. I like to serve this as side during a picnic because you can prepare this the day before. First, leave the onions raw. Spray a disposable aluminum pan with non-stick cooking spray. Toss all the…	1 vote 5077 views
