Green beans w/ butter and chopped onions? Bush's "Grillin' Beans"?
Maybe red potatos diced small w/ garlic black pepper and butter (again)?

There is not alot of meat to grilled chicken wings so you want something with substance... baked beans will compliment and are high in fiber. And a green...

Broccoli Stir Fry with Ginger and Sesame Recipe


1 Tbsp sesame seeds
1/2 cup chicken stock (or vegetable stock for vegetarian option)
1 Tbsp soy sauce (use gluten-free soy sauce for gluten-free option)
1 Tbsp dark sesame oil
Peanut, canola, or grapeseed oil, or some other high smoke-point cooking oil
1 pound broccoli florets, rinsed, patted dry, cut into bite-sized pieces
2 cloves of garlic, minced (about 1 Tbsp)
1 Tbsp minced fresh ginger

Method
1 Toast the sesame seeds by first heating a small, stick-free sauté pan on medium heat. Add the sesame seeds and jiggle the pan so they spread out in a single layer. Let them cook until lightly browned, stirring occasionally, about 3-5 minutes. Do not walk away from them while cooking, as once they start to brown they can easily burn. Once lightly toasted remove from heat and put into a small bowl, set aside.

2 Mix the stock, soy sauce, and dark sesame oil together in a small bowl, set aside.

3 Heat 1 Tbsp of peanut (or canola or grapseed) oil in a large, covered sauté pan on medium high heat. Add the broccoli florets, stir to coat the florets with the oil, Sauté for about a minute. Clear a space in the middle of the broccoli and add the ginger and garlic. Add a little more oil to the ginger and garlic (about a teaspoon) and sauté for half a minute, stirring just the garlic and ginger, until fragrant. Then stir the garlic and ginger in with the broccoli.

4 Add the chicken (or vegetable) stock mixture to the pan. Bring to a simmer, reduce the heat and cover. Let cook for 2-3 minutes, until broccoli is still firm, but can be pierced with a fork. Remove from heat. Remove broccoli with a slotted spoon to a bowl. Return pan to heat, increase heat to high and boil down the liquid until just a couple tablespoons remain. Turn off heat, return broccoli to the pan, add the toasted sesame seeds, toss with the liquid. Put into a serving bowl.

We had grilled wings last night, and we roasted red potatoes with olive oil and rosemary, then added fresh yellow squash and onions to just cook them enough. I made a horseradish cream dip for the potatoes too.

Squash Casserole

(but I have to use squash or zucchinni every other day because of the way my garden is currently producing them)

my family loves when we make sauteed potatoes. Buy the cans of the sliced potatoes - sautee them in butter (or oil), garlic, paprika and a touch of seasoned salt. Other favorite is fresh green beans sauteed in butter, lemon and white cooking wine - both very simple and delicious
