What would go good with "vegetarian sloppy joes"? It's for a friend get together, party of 5.?

I would go with the sloppy joes and serve parmesan potato wedges with them. Cut raw potatoes in wedges, coat with a little veggie or olive oil, then put parm and any seasoning you want on. Put in a single layer on a cookie sheet and bake til golden and crisp. Both your menues sound yummy though!
