We had another potluck at church last week and today I'm sharing the salad I took to share. It's a recipe I got from a friend who has since passed away. She was a great cook and I love remembering her when I make her recipes. This is an unusual salad because it has corn bread in it! It's very tasty and looks pretty in a clear glass bowl or a trifle bowl.
Chili Corn Bread Salad
1 pkg (8.5 oz) corn bread/muffin mix
1 egg
1/3 cup milk
1 can (4 oz) chopped green chilies
1/8 tsp ground cumin
1/8 tsp ground oregano
Mix all of above and bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes. Cool.
1 cup mayonnaise
1 cup sour cream
1 envelope ranch salad dressing
Mix to make dressing.
1 can (15 oz) pinto beans, drained and rinsed
1 can (15 oz) black beans, drained and rinsed
1 can (15 oz) corn, drained
3 medium tomatoes, chopped
1 green pepper, chopped
1/2 cup green onion, chopped
1/4 cup fresh cilantro
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
In a 9x13 glass pan or a large glass bowl, crumble half of the corn bread. Spread half of the dressing over bread. Layer with half the beans, corn, tomatoes, pepper, onion, cilantro and cheese. Repeat layer. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.

Hi dear Mari, your salad looks beautiful! Lovely colours! Thank you so much for sharing the recipe.
Very pretty!
Oh how yum that looks, smiles. Wishing you a lovely day, Mari.
Oh...that sounds good! I will definitely be giving this one a try. I'll just make my own cornbread.
This looks like a GOOD salad. As I read through the recipe I noticed there are a lot of wonderful flavors in this dish. Can't be a salad full of tasty goodness. I look forward to your Cooking Thursday recipes..
This is definitely delicious
It looks beautiful and I am sure tastes great! Thanks for another keeper!! (I'll leave the cilantro out...)
I love all the colors. Sounds so tasty! I'll copy and share this one! xoxo
Colourful and it must be tasty.
That looks so good.
Now that's my kind of salad. Great flavors and it looks so inviting in the glass bowl. I'll bet there were no left-overs either.
I do miss the church potlucks a lot!

Hi Mari. This looks delicious. I think I will try it! HAve a good weekend!
Cornbread sounds like a very, very fun idea in a salad. I love that you think of her when you make it. That's what I do when I make stuff from loved ones that pass as well. And sometimes, I leave my kitchen, come back and my kitchen smells like my grandma's kitchen. Oh my gosh. What a bittersweet thing. I love it.
I have never had a salad with bread in it - at first I thought it was seven layer salad. Looks really good!
That looks so yummy!!!
Such a lovely salad! It looks beautiful! Thank you for sharing. I'm going to pin it.
