Our most recent favorite side is asparagus. Even my 19 year old likes it! I think the kosher salt makes a difference. It's a quick and easy microwave recipe. http://homecooking.about.com/od/vege...s/r/blv309.htm

Years ago I started my tradition of a pot of steamed, fresh veggies. No sauces, just "clean" eating. I can hardly stand heavy, sauce laden side dishes. Don't get me wrong, I still indulge in gooey, sugary desserts but having a meal that is not so heavy in casseroles, etc, I don't feel as bloated and miserable. Full, yes. Overeat, of course. Just nice to have a healthy dish.

I made a corn casserole using Jiffy cornbread mix. I also bought a jar of mixed bean salad at Costco but added a can of drained whole kernel corn to sweeten it up a little bit. Was very good. Also made a raspberry, pineapple, walnut congealed salad, which was very good.

DH and I went to DD's for Christmas- just the 3 of us, She is a great cook, and makes delicious Mexican food, so she cooked a big pot of pinto beans, made Spanish Rice, and delicious Enchiladas and we had tossed salad- We will have our main Christmas in Jan when our son can get to come home- may have some ham or turkey and dressing or maybe steaks and for side dishes, cranberry salad and cornbread salad, and corn on the cob. Hope everyone had a great Christmas. I was out of town, so didn't get to post this on Christmas day.
