side dish ideas

I am thinking corn, mashed potatoes or alfredo noodles and rolls.
What do you normally serve with these?
Thanks!

luvmykids replied: I actually don't make a side dish when I make those because I put rice in mine, I figure it's a good all-in-one dish but if you think it's just not quite enough a salad and some texas toast or something sounds good.

I agree!

mckayleesmom replied: We always do mexican rice when we make those....yummy.

my2monkeyboys replied: I have had them with rice in them, but I wanted to try a slightly Italian flavor to it this time.. that's why I'm having a hard time figuring out what side(s) to make with it.
Hmmmmm....
I know all this has made me ready for them!!
Thanks for the ideas!

you could do some garlic bread, or a salad

mysweetpeasWil&Wes replied: What about a tomato and basil salad. They call it caprise salad...not sure if I spelled it right. But you slice tomatoes, add chopped fresh basil, slice mozarella cheese. Add olive oil and balsamic vinegar.

I also suggest a big caesar salad and maybe some grilled asparagus.

Me too!

I'd do a salad (the caprese one sounds yummy with this dish!) and bread too. I usually don't do a side with stuffed peppers either- just fresh bread or something!

luvmykids replied:
OH YUM, that is one of my favorites. I also like to use all the same ingredients (minus the oil and vinegar) to make a grilled cheese sandwich. It's especially yummy on sourdough

redchief replied: Mac and Cheese... what time is dinner?

my2monkeyboys replied: If my DH was home, it may would be moved up to lunch!!!
I'm starving for them now!!!
