We love chopped Spinach with pot pies. I add butter and some garlic salt, and a little Lawrly's season. Delish!

@magnus I agree, nothing wrong with salad and rolls. If you want you could make a nice dessert to finish off the meal.

@magnus Your pies sound delicious. How about fresh or frozen green beans with pearl onions or sauteed mushrooms? But a nice tossed salad and hot buttered rolls or brown bread sound good, too.
I have an Italian style chuck roast in tomato sauce simmering on the stove right now for tonight's dinner, with sauteed spinach and garlic bread as my sides.

@magnus Sure can. Here it is:
Italian Sauce Chuck Roast
Take a 2 and 1/2 to 3 lb. chuck roast. Season well with ground black pepper and kosher salt on both sides.
Heat a sturdy cast enamel Dutch oven or covered deep skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and sear the chuck well on both sides. Set to one side.
Add 1/2 lb. or more of fresh mushrooms to the drippings and saute and set aside. Do the same with one onion, diced, and 5 or 6 cloves of smashed garlic.
Return the roast to the pan and cover with enough jarred tomato sauce (I used Ragu traditional today) to almost cover and then add 2 Tbsp. oregano, 2 Tbsp. rosemary, 1 Tsp. garlic powder, 1 Tbsp. summer savory, a dash of white pepper, a dash of Worcestershire sauce, 1 cup of beef stock, 1/2 to 1 cup of good red wine, a squeeze of anchovy paste (optional) and some freshly chopped or dried parsley.
Bring up to high heat then cover and simmer on very low for 3 to 4 hrs.
Remove meat to a platter, place sauce in the freezer for a few minutes to skim off fat, then reheat sauce to serve with the beef, which should be fall apart tender.
