Depending on how close it will be to the permanent planting, I would avoid root crops or anything that requires digging to harvest.  You don't want a lot of competion for, or disruption to, the permanent plants.
I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days all attack me at once...

I was planning on growing potatoes and carrots in tubs. I fancy trying something a bit different?

Sweetcorn? tastes fantastic provided you get it from plant-to-boiling-water within a few minutes.  Choose a Supersweet / Tendersweet variety.
