This recipe came from my mom. It was probably a Betty Crocker or Better Homes & Gardens original. Unfortunately, I don't know the origin. I prepared this salad for company the other day and it was well received. I thought, Why am I not sharing it! The salad dressing can be made a day in advance.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup mayonnaise, hellmans, best foods
1/4 cup green onion
2 tablespoons chili sauce
2 teaspoons cider vinegar
1 teaspoon onion salt
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
4 drops tabasco sauce
1 head iceberg lettuce, chopped
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can corn, rinsed & drained
1 (6 ounce) can black olives, sliced, rinsed & drained
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can kidney beans, rinsed & drained
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can black beans, rinsed & drained
Directions:
1. For the dressing: Combine mayo, green onion, chili sauce, cider vinegar, onion salt, chili powder and tabasco in a small bowl. Whisk to combine. Then refrigerate.
2. For the salad: Layer the lettuce, corn, black olives, kidney beans and black beans in a salad bowl.
3. To serve: Add dressing to salad and toss to combine.
