not quite a dinner poll

This time I know what we're having for the main dish. We're having lemony herbed lamb chops! Yay! But my side dish plans were contingent on a particular shop being open that was not open, and so I need to figure out what to have as a side dish (or dishes, I might make a couple things; I like to have one starch and one non-starchy vegetable where possible) out of the ingredients I have at home.

Unfortunately, I haven't shopped for veggies recently, so what I have is basically the following: frozen spinach, frozen corn, frozen edamame, canned tomatoes, fresh celery, fresh carrots, fresh lemons, onions (yellow onions and shallots), Yukon Gold potatoes, sweet potatoes, rice, wild rice, couscous, quinoa, emmer farro, sandwich bread, fresh herbs (cilantro, parsley, mint and sage), sweet/hot peppers both brined and oil-cured, pickles of many types, plus a wide variety of spices, oils, vinegars, and condiments. What would you make of those?

My immediate thoughts are a) sauteed spinach, probably with garlic, possibly with tomatoes; b) corn and edamame salad, probably with garlic and lemon, possibly with spinach; c) some combination of roasted carrots, sweet potaotes, regular potatoes, and shallots, probably also with garlic; d) pilaf of some sort. But I am open to suggestions.

EDIT: Thanks to all who suggested things! I'm making a tabbouleh-style rice salad.

I'd toss some stuff in the slow cooker and make something stewish.

Edamame succotash! Sauteed onions or shallots, frozen corn, edamame, fresh herbs (I'd go with parsley and sage), some dried thyme, salt and butter.

You could achieve some kind of tabbouleh with that list, couldn't you?

Similar to ceph, I was thinking something of a salad that would combine things, like quinoa with edamame, carrot, celery, balsamic vinegar, and parsley and mint.

The world should hear of him at last. All those people who had sneered at him, neglected him, preferred other people to him, found his company undesirable, should consider him at last. Death, death, death! They had always treated him as a man of no importance. All the world had been in a conspiracy to keep him under. He would teach them yet what it is to isolate a man.
