The first thing that I ever cooked regularly was cornbread.
We were a family of routine. Fish sticks were eaten with Kraft Macaroni and Cheese. Tacos were eaten with Spanish Rice. And Beans & Franks (which is, in case you're wondering, exactly what it sounds like) was eaten with cornbread.
We ate a lot of franks. We ate a lot of beans. And we ate a lot of cornbread.
