Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 batch of my famous cornbread, baked and cooled
6 cups shredded romaine lettuce, about 2 romaine hearts
1 can pinto beans, rinsed and drained
4-6 green onions, chopped
1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, grated
1 large tomato, diced (or 3 roma tomatoes)
1 green bell pepper, diced
1 can corn, drained (or 1.5 cups frozen corn, thawed)
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup sour cream
1 heaping tablespoon ranch dressing mix
1-2 tablespoons milk

Steps:

  • When the cornbread is cool, remove it from the pan and cut into 1- to 1.5-inch cubes.
  • Add the lettuce to a large bowl, and top with the cornbread, pinto beans, green onion, cheese, tomato, bell pepper, and corn.
  • In another bowl, add the mayonnaise, sour cream, and ranch mix. Stir to combine. Add enough milk to make a dressing that is pourable, but still on the thick side.
  • When you are ready to serve, toss the salad well and drizzle with half the dressing. Serve right away with the other half of the dressing on the side so that people can add more as they like.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Cornbread: Use a moist and flavorful cornbread. Avoid dry or crumbly cornbread as it won't hold together well in the salad.
  • Use Fresh Vegetables: Use crisp and fresh vegetables for the salad. Avoid wilted or old vegetables as they will not add flavor or texture to the salad.
  • Use a Light Dressing: Use a light and flavorful dressing to avoid overpowering the other ingredients in the salad.
  • Serve Immediately: Cornbread salad is best served immediately after making. The cornbread will start to get soggy if it sits for too long.

Conclusion:

Cornbread salad is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for lunch, dinner, or as a side dish. It is a great way to use up leftover cornbread and is a perfect dish for potlucks or picnics. With its combination of sweet cornbread, crisp vegetables, and a tangy dressing, cornbread salad is a surefire crowd-pleaser.
