Customer ReviewsGreat summertime dinner!!I have made this a few times now, the first time I thought the cornbread would get to soggy if I left it over night, so I only did it 5 hours.....I will always make it the day before now!! Even over night the bread was NOT soggy, just yummy!!So GoodI absolutely love this recipe, it is fairly easy for me to whip up! yumGreat!This is so creamy and delicious! My picky kids LOVE it!great when its too hot to cooki've made something similiar for years. i always used kidney beans, and i've never tried it with olives. i always use a whole bottle of hidden valley ranch dressing dumped over the top ( i probably have more of everything else in the bowl too). if you let it sit overnight, its even better. tricked the grandkids into eating lots of veggies with this recipes! i always put it in my trifle bowl, cause it just looks so pretty. this is what i always take to picnics and cookouts, so we dont end u p with 5 bowls of macaroni salad. its always a hit, and there is never any left to take homeGreat tasting and easy on the budgetSo easy to make. I make double recipe of cornbread an save the 6 muffins. Color and texture combination create a beautiful dish pretty enough for a centerpiece. The combined flavors make ths a sure family favorite. Highly recommend.Great recipe!there is no substitute of hidden valley- tried and my family picked it up immediately and were not happy!Love this dish!I have made this salad numerous times for potluck dinners. It is always a hit. It's beautiful to look at and delicious to eat. A great main dish salad.
