Liver and potatoes?
I remember my least favorite meal was Liver. Mom and Dad used to make it fairly frequently, probably because it was cheap. It took alot of ketchup to make this go down.
Trying to remember what was served with it.
Liver, dredged in flour and salt/pepper, then fried in pan until browned.
If overcooked it became quite hard and could be substituted for a hockey puck.

Rice and Peaches
I don't have the recipe for this, but I remember Mom using this as a way to use up a bunch of leftover rice.
Take day old rice, and heat in on the stove with milk and sugar and cinnamon until it reaches the consistency of pudding.
Remove from heat and top with sliced canned peaches.
It was one of my favorite recipes growing up, something about the contract of the sweet warm rice mixture and the cold peaches.
