We like:
Carrots cooked in 1/2c. orange juice. You can add brown sugar in the last 10 minutes if you want. Or use 1T frozen OJ concentrate with 1/2 c. water.
This time of year.. Diced yellow squash, diced zucchini, onions, okra, saute til nearly done, add diced tomatoes. If you don't have okra it's ok to leave it out.
Brussel sprouts steamed with 1T. lemon juice in the water, then butter.
Steamed asparagus with Holandaise sauce. Sauce: 1 stick of butter (NOT margarine), 2 large egg yolks, 1 T lemon juice, s&p to taste. Slice butter into pats. In small heavy bottomed saucepan mix egg yolks and lemon juice well. Add half of the butter. Heat over very low heat, stirring constantly, til butter is melted. Add the rest of the butter and continue stirring until it is the consistency you want. It will thicken slightly as it cools.
Green beans fried in the fat of 2 bacon strips, crumble the bacon in it. You can add a little onion if you want. Tastes better with cut green beans, not french cut.
Sliced tomatoes with mayo/miracle whip.
That's all I can think of right now.
