Remember all the good salads at the family dinners at grandma's house? I lived next door to my grandmother and I can remember helping the aunts carry in their salads and casseroles for large family dinners. Some of these salads may remind you of those days in your life. Choose from Cornbread Tomato Salad, a Creamy Rice Molded Salad or the Stuffed Pear Salad and go back in time.
CORNBREAD TOMATO SALAD
This recipe is from an old yellowed newspaper clipping.
1 pkg (6-oz) cornbread mix
4 medium tomatoes, chopped
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1 yellow onion, chopped
1/2 cup sweet pickles, chopped
9 slices bacon, cooked crisp and crumbled
1 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup sweet pickle juice
Bake cornbread according to the package instructions. Cool, crumble, and set cornbread aside.
Combine tomatoes, bell pepper, onion, pickle and bacon; toss gently.
Combine mayonnaise and pickle juice, stir well and set aside.
In a large glass bowl, layer half of the crumbled cornbread, half the tomato mixture and half the mayonnaise mixture. Repeat the layers with the remaining ingredients. Cover and chill 2 hours before serving.
