Love to take this to "potlucks".Sometimes I add black beans and whole corn. It is very colorful and the taste is out of this world! Its worth trying!!
Read MoreThe first one or two bites is o.k. but after that it's just too much. It is very rich and thick. This is for people who could eat a spoonful of straight mayo without blinking.

I have been making this recipe for years and everyone loves it, some dont want to try it but then once they do they cant get enough, I add black beans, canned corn you can also use kidney beans its really endless what you do to this recipe. and I like more tomatos then it calls for. It is way better if made the night before.
This recipe is great, especially in summertime. I always crumble a few crispy slices of bacon up in mine, and it's even better!
Everyone loved this recipe. It was very, very easy and tasted great!!
Try this variation--also add chopped cucumber, chopped green onion and crumbled bacon that's been fried to a crisp, otherwise it will get soggy after it sits in the mayo, or you can use Miracle Whip or ranch dressing if you prefer. We are from southern West Virginia and put a scoop of this right smack in the middle of a bowl of fresh cooked pinto beans--yummy!
I would have given this recipe 5 stars but i add a few more ingredients. We like more vegetables and crunch in the salad, so i chop up some cauliflower, cucumber, and celery along with the bell pepper and onion. WONDERFUL salad. and great served with pinto beans along side.
This is very yummy. I only added 1/2 the amount of onion and it was still too much. Also this makes a lot of salad!!! I would recommend cutting in half unless you have a large group.

This was delicious! Very easy for my children to make. I used ½ an onion and then added a drained can of whole kernel corn and can of drained black beans.
Love this recipe, my grandmother made this before and I liked it but hers had a little too much mayo. I cut the ingredients in half and the mayo and it came out perfect. I will definitely be making this more often.
Hmmmm, I'm not sure what I think of this salad, so I'm giving it 3.5 stars. It definately has a different type of texture, which I was expecting, but I think the green pepper was too overpowering, and I felt it could've maybe used more things added to it, like maybe black beans, bacon or even shredded cheddar or something. I halved the recipe and eye-balled the mayo until I thought it was the right consistancy. All in all, it tasted good, but I would definately cut down on the green pepper or omit it, and add in the extras. Hubby didn't care for this at all, but I didn't think he would due to his 'texture' issues, lol. Thanks for sharing. :)
I had never had cornbread salad until a couple of weeks ago at a new Barbeque restaurant in town. I loved it and knew my husband would to. I needed a recipe, so I hopped on AR and found one. It was wonderful. I did make a few adjustment though. I didn't put as many onions as it called for and also added some roasted red peppers. It was wonderful !!!
Was really surprised with this recipe... I really liked it!!! Will be great to fix for get togethers...
what a great starter recipe! i never knew cornbread could make such a yummy salad. i used the recipe for 5-minute cornbread and added 3 roma tomatos, 1/2 white onion, 1 cucumber and 1 can corn. added mayo to taste, mine isn't as moist as the recipe calls for, but it's delicious!
Tastes so good on a hot summer day! Did tweek the recipe a little bit. I used 2 tomatoes and took out the seeds. I also used 1 red pepper to give it more color.
I made it and it's really good! I took the advice of other reviewers and added pinto beans, corn, celery, bacon and shredded cheese. I also cut the mayo part in half (I used lite mayo) and then split that up by adding ranch dressing. So I only added about 2 1/4 cups total of dressing mixture. I will definitely make this again!
I'd never heard of cornbread salad before, but needed something to take to a salad luncheon. I prepared this as written plus the corn and black beans. It was the hit of the luncheon. Everyone loved it and went back for seconds!
As a Southern from the Midsouth region this is heaven. Everyone I shared it with loved it. I had some leftover pintos and cornbread i used in this recipe.
I love salads...this one was TERRIBLE!! We threw the whole thing away!!
One word....AWESOME!!!! I made this for the 4th of July and all of my guest reved about it. I did however add some celery, ranch dressing and shredded cheese. I also think it could have used more tomato but never the less this is a keeper. =)
I added black beans, canned corn and more tomatoes - like the recipe says..let it stand for at least 18 hours.
very good and easy salad. I didn't have enough mayo, so put one cup sour cream. I also crumbled up some leftover bacon....YUM! I halved the recipe as my family are not salad lovers like I am.
Something different to offer. Made kid friendly by omitting onion, added black beans, corn kernels, and bacon bits. Could easily cut recipe in half and still have plenty.
5+++++ starss! I had leftover cornbread I needed to use up, so I decided to give this a try. This was sooo good...I used white onions instead of red and also added an avocado. I will be making this often!
