Method

Preheat oven to 400 degrees and grease an 8 X 8 inch pan. Prepare cornbread according to package directions using egg/milk; add green chilies and taco spice. Transfer to prepared pan and bake 20-25 minutes or until top springs back when lightly touched. In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise, sour cream and ranch dressing. In a large bowl, crumble cornbread, add beans, corn, tomatoes, olives, red pepper and cheese. Toss to mix. Add dressing and toss to coat. Refrigerate until just before service.

 

Notes: This colorful salad is a perfect potluck treat. It travels well and stays delicious to the last tasty spoonful. I've never brought home leftovers.
