Take the Restaurant Home with Green Giant Restaurant Sides

December 8, 2023 By Lena Leave a Comment

Weeknight dinners dilemmas are a common occurrence, especially when it comes to making sure the meal is well-balanced. We love the ease of grabbing a rotisserie chicken, or throwing together a quick pasta dish, but struggle with getting our greens in (and often, that translates to none at all). Add in a couple of teens with opposing tastes, and it’s no wonder weeknights can be downright stressful.

However, I think I may have found a scrumptious solution –

Green Giant Restaurant Sides are my new favourite go-to! Ready in less than 10 minutes, they’re a delicious and easy way to add more vegetables to your plate.
Green Giant Restaurant Sides feature premium vegetable cuts with chef-inspired sauces. The new sides come in two scrumptious varieties: Garlic Parmesan Green Beans and Cauliflower & Onions with Garlic Butter. They’re easily prepared on the stove top in under 10 minutes; simply add to a skillet, sauté and cover. Just a few minutes later, they’re perfect fork-tender!
Of course, the best part is the mouth-watering flavour, which truly is restaurant quality. The green beans are savoury and have just the right touch of garlicky goodness, and the cauliflower mix is mellow enough be loved even by my picky tween. Both varieties will be staples in our freezer all winter long!

What can you pair with Green Giant Restaurant Sides? As previously mentioned, we love a simple protein like a rotisserie chicken or plate of pasta, but I can also see myself pairing the sides with holiday leftovers – a turkey sandwich or roast beef dinner.
They’re also great for meal planning for quick and easy lunches; simply divide Garlic Parmesan Green Beans among five containers and pair with grilled chicken breast and cherry tomatoes, or serve Cauliflower & Onions with Garlic Butter alongside a creamy shrimp or seafood pasta.
