NWR : Need a side dish !!

Anyone have a good recipe for a salad or side dish to go with steamed crab legs? I cant think of anything good and healthy

couscous and peas? my FSIL made this side dish of cold couscous, peas, and i think some fruit (raisins or grapes)...it was soooo delish! she said she found it online somehwere

oh...and corn on the cob!!!! LOVE CORN ON THE COB!!!

Cold sesame noodle salad

Mint pea salad

Fruited couscous

Steamed asparagus w/dill butter

Wild rice with peas & mushrooms.

Cook the rice normal
Saute fresh baby portabella in a small amount of butter.
When the rice & the mushrooms are done, mix in a seperate bowl add peas & toss.
Be sure to drain the water out of the peas prior to adding to the mix.
You can make this the night before, nuke it the day of it keeps fine.
If you want to add a little fancy..............add some fresh chopped parsley.

Grilled asparagus!!
With a little evoo and some lemon peper seasoning
Yummies!!!!!!!!!

i 3rd asparagus!! or grilled veggies in general!! squashh eggplantt asparagus even grilled lemon.. mmmmm ( had it last night and im droolling)

Sounds Delish! You just put them right on the grill or put evoo on them first ?

Here are a few Ideas:
1)brown rice after it is cooked stir in diced tomatoes and chopped scallions
2) Zuchini grilled wiht a little salt and pepper and EVOO
3) TRader Joes has amazing frozen vegtable mixes...our favorites are fire-roasted veggies and harvest hodgepodge (yes that is its real name)

corn on the cob and shellfish always make a good match!!
otherwise any grilled veggies

grilled corn is really really tasty too!
