Question of the Day, Saturday, May 18

[Winchester]

Happy Weekend! We finally got a few peaks of sun late this afternoon.

As a side for your main dish, would you prefer: vegetables, salad, a starch like potatoes, noodles, rice?

I love potatoes, but cannot eat them anymore due to the potassium. So I'm eating white rice as a side (can't even have brown rice, which I also love). I'd probably choose a good salad with my own dressing.

What about you?

Depends what's in the side, really. Potatoes are my favourite. I like salads as long as they're not drowned in mayonnaise. Cooked vegetables are fine but if I never see another plate laden with boiled pumpkin and/or carrot it'll be too soon.

I'm not fussy- I'll eat almost anything as a side. Michele will make slow-roasted beef with gravy on a bed of rice, and that's good, or pan-fried potatoes, sometimes we'll have a salad; sometimes carrots or peas, or green beans are the side. All will pass muster.

 

[Stormy accepts you]

Salad. There are so many kinds.

I always try to keep a balanced diet and include veggies and salad along with a starch/carb...but I gotta go with a starch. I absolutely love rice! Pasta and potatoes (depending on how they are prepared) are tied for second. I could seriously eat rice everyday....yum! Carbs are my friends and I will never abandon them!

 

[catdaddy38]

I like a good side salad but I don't like tomato or purple onions or white onions...so I'm kind of picky about my salads lol. I also prefer spinach over lettuce and so does my tummy.

 

[lizzie]

I could probably live without the carbs,so I guess I'm lucky to love veggies and salad.Either one would do quite nicely.

 

[MoochNNoodles]

It depends. I like almost everything. My DH generally won’t eat rice, potatoes OR pasta; so I seem to go through spurts where I choose one I’ve not had in a while and feel like a kid in a candy shop with it. We always have a vegetable too. So i guess the thing I’m looking for most is my carb!

 

[neely]

Definitely veggies or a salad. I've been sautéing veggies and adding them to my salad lately.

 

[susanm9006]

Usually a vegetable, not because I love them but because they are low carb.

 

[game misconduct]

depends on the main dish kinda but red lobster makes some really good brussel sprouts so i will pick that usually

 

[denice]

I like any starch potatoes, noodles it really doesn't matter but I try to limit those.

 

[nurseangel]

I am happy with most any sides. If I am having Chinese, I most definitely want white rice. If I eat out, I usually opt for a baked potato and a salad.

potatoes of any kind
