What goes with pineapple chicken

Hey quick I need a really easy really cheap recepie that will go well with baked pineapple chicken. I have no idea I don't cook very often but I wanted to try this one.. Preferably something I can use frozen vegetables with :glasses:

I usually do some steamed broccoli and brown rice. Both come in steam packages for easy making.

A spicey rice would set off the sweet flavor really well.

Agree on the rice, but watch the ready-to-go packages, usually they are packed with sodium.

What I recommend is to make a pot of rice (even the minute stuff), and instead of water use some kind of tea for extra flavour. We use a specialty tea called Jesse's Tea, it's got lavender and coconut in it, and turns out delicious coconut rice with no effort and no extra calories.

Brown basmati rice with mushrooms, a half can of mushroom soup and toss in some frozen veg.
