Cold Weather Meal :::: Ham and Beans with Cornbread

Ham and beans in the winter is a welcome dish. While I understand that not everyone enjoys it like I do so we have to fix a ham along with the ham and beans at our house. SO our menu goes like this
ham and beans
cornbread
ham and cheese sandwiches
coleslaw
fried potatoes

Today, I am only sharing a ham and bean and cornbread recipe. A quick search on this blog will reveal the recipes to the other dishes.
