Lemon & Garlic Green Beans

Lemon & Garlic Green Beans by John Spottiswood

It is rare to have a side dish which everyone keeps reaching for instead of the main dish. That's especially true if its a fairly simple green vegetable side.

Roasted Broccoli

Roasted Broccoli by John Spottiswood

This roasted broccoli recipe, adapted from the Barefoot Contessa, is really wonderful. It has a lot of flavor. We served it with a mild pasta, and it was just a wonderful combination. Don't be worried by the lemon juice and zest. They impart a subtle flavor that adds a nice dimension to this dish.

Quick and Tasty Greek Cauliflower

Quick and Tasty Greek Cauliflower by Salad Foodie

Fresh Kale w/ garlic

Fresh Kale w/ garlic by Evil Fairy

This is so simple and taste wonderful. When you blanch it first it seems to have a sweeter flavor to it. It's even good cold. You can do this dish with any Fresh Greens. Spinach is amazing this way...just add a pinch of nutmeg to it. A sprinkle of Parmesan cheese is a good touch Great as a side dish to Quiche

Roman-Style Spinach

Roman-Style Spinach by John Spottiswood

This is a great new way I've learned to cook spinach. I wouldn't have thought of adding sweetness to spinach, but I really like the way the currants and pine nuts contrast with the slight bitterness of fresh spinach. This is a new winner that I'll be cooking frequently in the future!
