Cornbread Salad ?

[mrsjimmyp]

Anyone ever had it ? I ate some recently and it was wonderful...would love a recipe for it. May be a southern thing...lol.

I've never even heard of it before, Francie. Can you describe it a bit? Maybe we know it by another name.

Hmmm... like Delta version of an Italian panzanella salad, maybe? YUM!

This appeared about a month ago on the Epi-log. Does it sound like what you are looking for?

"You just crumble a panful of stale corn bread into a big bowl, add a chopped bell pepper, a couple of stalks of chopped celery, a whole bunch of chopped scallions (both white and green parts), about half a cup of chopped pecans, a diced large tomato and a ton of mayonnaise, mix it well and chill it briefly."

I was brought up on "bread" salads - Italian bread, French bread, cornbread - and it's just about anything goes!
