That sure sounds yummy. Of course anything that features bacon and mayonnaise sounds good, possibly not too healthy, but good :).

Do you ever go to the Potpouri house in Tyler? It's a great Ladies lunch place they serve a cornbread salad and I have always wanted a recipe for it. Can't wait to try this on.

I can't believe that I've never heard of this. It sounds fantastic. My entire family is from the south and I lived in Texas for four years and I've never had it. This will be on my list of things to make this week. Thanks!

This is a great favorite of our family. We add little chunked sweet pickles to it sometimes when we have them. Yours looks better because of the pecans. Never tried that. I love the way you take pictures all the way through a recipe. You lead us right to it! Great!

Thanks so much for sharing this recipe! My hubby tried some of this from a place here in Dallas and loved it. Now I can make it for him at home! You're a PEACH!
Just one question though. When you say two pans of cornbread, do you mean like the kind you posted about earlier, with the cast iron skillet and 2 pkgs Martha White cornbread mix? That's always how I make cornbread too, so I'm just wondering if this recipe would use 2 batches like that, ie: 4 pkgs of mix.
Thanks so much for clarifying, if you get the chance to :)

One of my club members made this for us (she does catering) and it was the most delicious dish and one I had not tasted - I am so glad to see a recipe. Thanks dear Tina - you always come up with a winner.

Wow, that looks delicious, but a pint of mayonnaise is not something I'm going to touch!!! :P Just looking at that recipe is upping my scale!!

I can't believe that I have never heard of it either, but I am SO glad you brought this to my attention because it looks wonderful.
Your pictures are fantastic. I can almost smell the bacon sizzling in the pan. :-)

Oh my word. I am currently reducing my fat intake so I really am traumatized that I cannot try this recipe immediately. I'll just have to earmark it for later use. :)
Posted by: Tracey | January 28, 2008 at 12:24 PM
Man, that looks good. I've got to put this on the menu for this week. :)

Oh.My.Goodness! I made this today and my family loved it!! Thank you so much for sharing the recipe, it's definitely a keeper!
Posted by: andrea | February 07, 2008 at 07:29 PM
Oh my stars!!! You had me at a pint of mayonnaise! I made this and CANNOT pull myself out of the bowl...literally! It is one of my new all-time favorite dishes. How can you go wrong with cornbread, bacon, and mayonnaise. Thank you, THANK YOU! I would like to share this on my blog, with credit to you, of course, if you do not mind.

Hi,
I am not sure how much cornbread to add to the salad. If you measured it by the cupfuls, how many cups? I don't make my cornbread in a frying pan. I usually bake it in the oven. I am born in Texas but it live in Colorado now. I love looking at your pictures and recipes.
Thanks, Terry
