This recipe is great for potlucks because it makes such a huge quantity. It is kind of difficult to scale down because you would end up with partial cans of ingredients. I took this to a church potluck, and I actually had men coming up to me and asking to give their wives the recipe! The recipe came from Taste of Home.

CORNBREAD CONFETTI SALAD

I had this today at a luncheon and had to have the recipe. The lady that brought it had all ready xeroxed copies because she knew that she would be handing it out for requests. This is delicious. She was not sure of the servings so I guessed. It filled a large bowl. I also guessed on the size of the envelope for the dry ranch dressing as it was not given in the recipe. Preparation time does not count cooling time for corn bread.
