Help me decide what to have with dinner! (Salmon croquettes)

crsawinton

I'm making salmon croquettes for supper tonight, anyone have any ideas for sides? I'm leaning toward a kale side dish but I need one more side, preferably kid friendly.

I personally like Asparagus or Brussels Sprouts with salmon

Serve over Wild Rice w/ Mushrooms & a side of Lemon-Butter Brussels Sprouts... Mmm!

Those both sound fantastic, unfortunately I don't have any of it! Perhaps brown rice...

ChrysalisCove

What do you have on hand? Bitter, earthy or buttery flavors will work well. Leafy greens, root veggies, brown rice...

I do have kale, I could sautee some with a little butter/olive oil, lemon juice and garlic, and make brown rice, with some spices in it.

Fresh produce-wise there isn't much in there carrots, kale, potatoes, .. I have canned peas, carrots, spinach, canned tomatoes, beans, corn. In the pantry there is brown rice, jasmine rice, barley, potatoes, onions, macaroni and cheese, pasta, probably some other odds and ends hanging around. need to go shopping lol.

You could do a risotto w/ the brown rice, diced or puréed carrots & kale. That would be yummy!
