Christmas Eve Menu - Need 1-2 veggie recipes!

I'm hosting Christmas Eve this year for the second time. We don't necessarily do courses, we just have apps out on a table for people to pick at and then when it is time to eat, everything goes out on the table together. It may seem like a lot of different things, but we are Italian and do the traditional 7 fish. lol I am looking to add 1-2 more veggie dishes and that's where I need some help! What do you think would go well with this menu? Any recipes would be greatly appreciated!

APPETIZERS
Shrimp Cocktail
Cold Seafood Salad
Bruschetta
Antipasto Skewers – Cheese/Olives/etc.

MAIN COURSE
Fried Calamari with Lemon and Marinara

Scallops Wrapped in Bacon
Shrimp Scampi over Linguini
Bacala (Mom - I won't touch this!)

What about roasted broccoli and cauliflower? It is easy and goes well with your menu.
