I know there's another food thread where people are talking about what they made recently, but I need ideas on what to do to finish off my pork chops and chicken. And I'm tired of eating broccoli so convince me another vegetable is edible. >:)
 
i love sweet potato fries!! chop them up into frie shapss! little bit of oil, some seasoning like curry powder, salt + pepper and then stick in the oven !
 
Have you tried asparagus with something like that? Pretty good cooked and with a bit of butter. Also goes really well with pork chops and chicken. Not sure if you’d be interested in something like that though.
 
Veggies, huh?
I might have a few ideas.

Zucchini & Squash
Ingredients:
• 1 Zucchini​
• 1 Squash​
• 1 Onion​
• Garlic Powder​
• Paprika​
• Olive Oil​
• Salt & Pepper​
Instructions:
Slice the zucchini, squash, and onion (slice the onion just like you would for fajitas) and put them in a bowl. Season the contents of the bowl with garlic powder (or pressed garlic cloves, at least three), paprika, olive oil, and salt & pepper. Mix everything in the bowl together (mixing is best using your hands) making sure everything is coated nicely. Pour everything from the bowl into a heated skillet, cover, and cook on medium low heat, stirring occationally until the zucchini and squash are soft but still have a slight crunch.​
OR​
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Season like before, but pour onto a baking sheet and cover with a cheese like parmesan. Cook for around 5 to 10 minutes. Turn oven to broil and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes.​

Cauliflower Rice
Ingredients:
• 1 Cauliflower​
• Turmeric​
• Onion Powder​
• Garlic Powder​
• Salt & Pepper​
• Chicken Stock​
• 1 to 2 tbsp of butter or bacon grease​
• [optional] Basil/Parsley/Dill Weed/Red Pepper Flakes​
Instructions:
Grate the cauliflower into a bowl and season it with the onion powder (1 diced onion), garlic powder (3 pressed cloves), salt & pepper, and any extras. In a heated skillet, heat up some turmeric along with a couple splashes of chicken stock. Melt the butter or grease in the pan before pouring in the cauliflower and making sure it is all coated with the turmeric. Cook until fully hot.​

Cabbage
Dice the cabbage (medium) and onion (small). Season with at least salt & pepper. Melt butter or bacon grease in a heated skillet and add the cabbage and onion. Cover and cook until cabbage is softer, but still has a slight crunch.​

Asparagus
Season the asparagus with salt & pepper, garlic & onion powder, paprika, and olive oil (best done with your hands inorder to coat them nicely). Cook on a heated skillet with melted butter or bacon grease until heated but still crisp.​
OR​
Just like with the zucchini & squash, preheat oven to 425 degrees. Season like before along with bread crumbs, but pour onto a baking sheet and cover with a cheese like parmesan. Cook for around 5 to 8 minutes. Turn oven to broil and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes.​

Brussel Sprouts
Season with salt & pepper. Best cooked with bacon grease in a heated skillet until tender crisp. Top with bacon bits.​

you really went all out!
 
over the quarantine i have been making so many dishes with mushrooms and spinach. i usually consider myself kind of picky when it comes to veggies, but mushrooms and spinach sauteed in garlic and olive oil is sooooo good. sorry it's not quite a recipe but i'm sure there are ways to incorporate it with your meat. i find a lot of good recipes on pinterest.
also, roasted cauliflower is delicious. a really good side veggie.
 
I was going to suggest brussel sprouts, but it looks like someone beat me to it. So I'll second it.

Fried apples and onions work well with pork.

  • ¼ cup butter

  • 4 apples - peeled, cored, and sliced

  • 1 onion, cut into matchstick-sized pieces

  • ¼ cup brown sugar

  • 1 pinch ground cinnamon, or to taste (optional)
Melt butter in a skillet over medium-high heat; cook and stir apples, onion, brown sugar, and cinnamon in the melted butter until onions are translucent and sauce is slightly reduced, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool before serving.
 
I'll have to try all of these :love:

Personally for brussels sprouts I love getting that nice caramelized char so I like to really go ham with the cast iron (cast iron skillets are <3 btw).

I was trying to figure out something to do with my leftover cabbage too, thanks for the ideas <3 @cucumberzest

No problem!
You talking about caramelization reminded me of brown sugar (add a sprinkle of brown sugar to your brussel sprouts) which reminded me of a greens recipe, if you'd like it.

Greens in a Rice Cooker
Ingredients:
• 1lb fresh Collard Greens (remove the stems)​
• 1lb thick Bacon​
• 2 tbsp to 1/4 cup Brown Sugar​
• 2 diced Onions​
• 2 to 4 minced Garlic Cloves​
• Apple Cider Vinegar​
• 2 to 3 cups Chicken Broth​
• Salt & Pepper​
• Red Pepper Flakes​
Instructions:
1. Cook all the bacon and let them sit to dry. Crumble up the bacon.​
2. Cook the onions and garlic in the bacon grease until fragrant. In a rice cooker, pour in the chicken broth, a splash of apple cider vinegar, and brown sugar. Start up the cooker.​
3. Add the collard greens to the skillet along with salt & pepper and cook until wilted.​
4. Pour everything from the skillet into the rice cooker along with the bacon and red pepper flakes. Cover and let the rice cooker go for a couple hours. Just make sure that your bacon doesn't start disintegrating.​

If you make greens, you gotta make some cornbread. I make cornbread from those 50 cent cornbread boxes. All I do is add 1/4 cup of sugar and a splash more of milk.
 
edit: i can ask my grandma, she makes amazing veggies that actually taste good lol
