This Southwestern Cornbread and Chicken Salad is a wonderful salad or appetizer to serve any day and if Southwestern foods are a little too spicy for you, this is the way to go. I call it Cinco de Mayo for the fainthearted. I love spicy food but it does NOT love me.

I wanted to make something ahead of time in my nifty new teeny crockpot to have before dinner {at home Chinese yumminess} last week. I made this crab rangoon….just the stuffing…not the wrapper, and served with tortilla chips….it was soooo good. I will be … [Read more...]
