Angie's Notes:

I discovered this at an office potluck, it is wonderful! Great for potlucks, get together s, etc. Serves a lot of people.
It taste better if you fix it the night before and refrigerate it overnight.

I had never heard of Cornbread Salad before so I couldn’t wait to try this one! I absolutely love the different layers of taste and textures. This will be a wonderful recipe to take to summer gatherings.

I'm going to try this, too. My husband is allergic to green peppers but I will use grated carrot in place of it. Also thinking of using pimento or black olives, or both. This is a nice recipe.

You know Jan, I don't know. I just have always been able to go to the local supermarket in the isle where the muffin mixes and stuff are, and grab a package of Tex Mex cornbread, or 'Martha White' Mexican Cornbread mix. I would think that just regular cornbread mix (or cornbread from scratch) would work just as well.

I have done a variation of this before in a trifle bowl...start with lettuce and then layer everything else to the top finishing with the cheese....I saved the dressing(ranch) so everyone could do that to their taste.

You can always make your own Mexican Cornbead. Add a can of drained green chili's,some drained corn (just "eyeball" it) & add a little chili powder & bake as directed.

I left out the green peppers and added cilantro and this was delicious. I am taking it to a mother's day picnic today and I think it will be a hit. It was so easy and the flavors are just wonderful. I used the trick of adding chili seasoning and green chili's to my cornbread recipe and I added a dash of cayenne pepper. Wow this is good

I have made this with Hidden Valley spicy ranch and it is really good. A little spicy so you have to like that, but I like the kick it gives it.

Hi Angie, I was wanting to try this recipe. After you do your layers. What temp do you bake it at and for how long? That was not in the directions unless I overlooked it. Sounds great! Thank you
