I'm making spinach and mushroom stuffed chicken tomorrow with pepper jack and Swiss cheese

Can anyone help me with ideas for sides to compliment it? I've tried different sides before but I can't find the right one

    I just made stuffed chicken the other day! I made a Greek salad to go with it- spring mix, black olives, feta cheese, red onion, cucumber, and the Greek Feta Salad Dressing from Trader Joes (any dressing works though). But sweet potatoes are a side I think goes with just about everything too. Or steamed broccoli sprinkled with a little bit of grated parmesan.

    I'll link to one of my very favorite veggie recipes-it's a great side as it's veggie heavy, but also with sweet potatoes which seems to round out a meal nicely :). http://www.food.com/recipe/oven-roasted-vegetables-334483

    Roasted asparagus. And if you have the calories, couscous or quinoa.

    I make once a week either cordon bleu or Italian stuffed chicken (with homemade sauce and Parmesan cheese), and these both are extremely filling and I do not normally serve anything with them.. This has light breading (carbs), lots of protein and I sear mine on the stove top before putting in the oven, so it has a very small amount of oil added to the pan and with cheese this makes this takes up the fat for the entire meal..

    However on a "refuel" day (friday) and this were the dinner meal of the day, I would say that I would consider adding steamed veggie medley (broccoli ,cauliflower and carrots), stir fry veggies, salad (simple with just romaine or any veggie/tomates I have in the house) with light dressing.
