Have to agree with the pasta idea. It goes with so many things that you can use whatever looks good in the meat section for an easy, and good dinner. Pasta is also good for a quick lunch if you do have leftovers.
I'd just base it on what looks good for the main dish, and go from there. A good salad and a baguette goes with just about everything for your sides. If you did want to cook something local, I'd try a side dish first. Maybe a fruit or veggie that you can't get at home. What ever you do, get some Etna ice cream-it's the best!!!
