Don't forget that something fresh, vibrant, and crunchy is often missing from potluck gatherings; this easy salad will get gobbled up quickly because it satisfies on those levels.
We use crisp radishes for a bit of crunch and spiciness in this Crab Salad Sandwich. You can also use chopped fennel, celery, thinly sliced fresh apple, or matchsticks of jicama as alternatives.
"I’ve been bringing this refreshing salad to potlucks recently, and everyone raves about it. A sprinkle of brown sugar and nuts is a special finishing touch," says Marge Elling, Jenison, Michigan.
This layered salad is made with green chile cornbread, pinto beans, peppers, corn, bacon bits, tomatoes, and cheese. It's then chilled for two hours to allow the flavors to blend.
