Pair this with...

Easy Corn Bread

Begin by preheating your oven and greasing a baking pan. In a mixing bowl, combine equal parts cornmeal and all-purpose flour. Add in some sugar, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, an egg, and melted butter or oil. Now, merge the wet ingredients with the dry, stirring just until everything comes together. Pour this batter into your prepared pan and slide it into the oven. Bake until the top turns a lovely golden hue and a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Let it cool for a moment, then slice and serve.

Simple Tossed Salad

Start by tearing your iceberg lettuce into bite-sized pieces, ensuring a cool and crunchy base. Thinly slice a red onion, adding a pop of color and a zesty kick. For a refreshing crunch, slice up some cucumber, and for a sweet contrast, add in slivers of red pepper. Once your components are prepped and in the bowl, give everything a good toss, ensuring the ingredients are mixed and every bite will have a little bit of everything. For a simple dressing, squeeze the juice of a fresh lemon over the top, adding a burst of citrusy brightness.
