I am always in awe of the beauty of high tide! Just had to share a picture of "high tide" this morning.
Later today we'll be tailgating before the Gamecocks kick-off against Florida Atlantic at Williams Brice Stadium.
I've been wanting to make this Cornbread Salad for a while now. This seems like a great opportunity - hope it will be a crowd-pleaser!
The recipe is an adaptation from Cornbread Salad in one of our favorite local
cookbooks: Full Moon, High Tide.
Begin with a layer of chopped lettuce and mixed vegetables. I used tomatoes, corn, bell pepper, cucumbers, green onions, and black beans. Many of the recipes I scanned called for pinto beans - I just like black beans better. Take your pick!
Then there is a layer of crumbled cornbread. Use your favorite recipe. I used "always dependable and quick" - Jiffy Cornbread. Baked, cooled, and coarsely crumbled.
Next is a layer of dressing: This one is a bit fat-laden. 16 oz. reduced fat sour cream, 1 cup mayonnaise, and 1 packet of Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing Mix (original).
Last, but not least, grated cheddar cheese and crumbled crispy bacon!! (Layer everything twice.) Refrigerate!!

Hope you aren't being too over absorbed in germs these days. Knock on wood ~ we're all healthy here! Love ~ Lillian
