Recommendations for a kind-of-Italian, make-ahead green vegetable side dish?
I'm making a sit-down dinner for 10 people and would love some recommendations for a make-ahead green vegetable side dish. The rest of the dinner menu consists of the wonderful baked eggplant parm dish from this site, a short rib ragu served over polenta and likely a grilled Caesar salad to start. I've thought of roasted green beans with garlic and olive oil, but I'd be happy to do something a little more involved. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!

It will be lovely with the rest of your menu!

Either way, it will be good at room temp, or you can put it in the oven for a few minutes when the eggplant is almost done.
