Can you believe that Summer is "unofficially" over? Boo! I have been away this week savoring every last drop of it!
I am back now. And just in time for all the barbecuing that'll be going on this weekend. Can't wait! I have the perfect salad to go alongside any meats you'll be grilling up. Not only is it incredibly delicious it's really beautiful! Kinda steals the show!

| Cornbread Salad |
 |
| Gorgeous and fresh! Perfect for your trifle bowl! |
 |
| All dished up! |
Ingredients:
1 package corn bread mix, prepared as directed and cooled (I like Marie Callender's)
1 head of leafy green lettuce, torn
1 15oz can corn, drained
1 15oz can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
1 bunch of green onions, chopped
10 slices of bacon, cooked and crumbled
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup shredded jack cheese
1/2 to 1 cup ranch dressing (however much you like)
Directions:
After cornbread has cooled, cut it into small cubes.
Layer a large bowl with half each of cornbread, lettuce, and next 6 ingredients; drizzle half of your dressing evenly over top. Repeat layers with remaining ingredients and dressing. Cover and chill for about an hour before serving. (Makes several servings.) *Also delicious when served with chopped andouille sausage instead of bacon.
