We're having company tonight and it's way too hot to be doing a lot of indoor cooking! So, I'm making Greg stand outside, where it's about 103 and cook over a 400 degree grill! Oh well, it won't take long to cook those chicken breasts! Along with the grilled foods I decided to make Cornbread Salad. Now, before you say, "yuck!" Trust me, it's just plain yummy!
Cornbread Salad
1-2 tomatoes, chopped
1 cup mayo
Make cornbread as directed on box, adding the 1/2 cup of sugar to the mix. Let cornbread cool and crumble into a bowl. Add the remaining ingredients and stir until well mixed. Chill before serving.
**As if jiffy cornbread mix NEEDS sugar! This time I made it, I forgot to add the sugar and I think I prefer it without the sugar. Do whatever makes you happy!
I cook my bacon in the oven. I line a large baking pan with foil and put a cookie cooling grid on the foil and lay the bacon across it and bake at 400 degrees until it's done (maybe 20 minutes or so, I've never timed it!). It cooks flat and with less mess than on the stove. Also, I don't have to hoover over it to make sure I'm not burning it. I don't even turn it when I cook it in the oven!
So there you have it! Do you think I can grab a quick bite before our friends get here?
