Ingredients:

1 box of cornbread
1 can of black beans
2 cups of chopped lettuce
1 can of corn
1 cup of diced tomatoes
1 diced orange bell pepper
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
2 stalks chopped green onions
For dressing: 1 avocado, ½ jalepeno, ¼ cup cilantro, 2 limes, ½ tsp cumin, 1 tbsp olive oil, ¼ tsp garlic, salt

Procedure:

  1. Prepare the dressing first. Take all the ingredients for the dressing and put them in the blender. Run it on slow speed so that you get a uniform solution. All the ingredients should be blended well together.
  2. Since you have bought the cornbread in a box, it will have directions for cooking it. You can follow those directions to cook the bread and then allow it to cool down. Break the bread piece in half and keep one half as it is. Break the other half into crumbs and drop them on the dish in which you will layer the salad.
  3. Now you have the initial layer. For the second layer, take half of the chopped lettuce and spread it on top of the corn bread crumbs.
  4. For the third layer, take half of the black beans after they have been drained properly and put evenly on the lettuce.
  5. The fourth layer can consist of half of the corn. This corn should also be drained and kept on the beans.
  6. The bell peppers will make up the fifth layer. Make sure that you take only half of the chopped bell peppers only.
  7. In the sixth layer, the tomatoes can provide the color and make the salad look really yummy. Keep half of the chopped tomatoes aside here too.
  8. After the tomato, it is the turn of the cheddar cheese. Again, take half of the cheddar cheese and sprinkle it over the tomatoes.
  9. Take half of the salad dressing and drizzle the 7 layers with it. This will add the necessary taste to the salad. Don’t toss the ingredients or you will spoil the entire look.
  10. Now that you have got the seven layers ready, you can just repeat the process again to get another 7 layers of the same ingredients. You can drizzle the entire salad now with the rest of the salad dressing.
  11. To garnish the salad, you can take the green onions and place them on the top. You now get a splendid look. Now it is time to enjoy the salad.

Well, this salad will really taste delicious and can be very good for your health. All you need to do is get all the ingredients together and you will have a great recipe for a salad on hand.
