Steak with Sides

I have found that with beef comes sides. The most common side that beef comes with is : The potato. Whether the potato is fries, baked, mashed with garlic or in slices there is always beef with potato. What you don't always see is vegetables. If it is a hamburger there might be some veggies on the burger but not a full portion. With steak, there is a side of vegetables but by the time those are the only thing left on your plate, you're full. I think potato goes well with beef because it enhances the flavor and has a different texture. With steak full of spices and herbs, the potato balances the seasonings out.
