Southwestern Cornbread Salad

6 oz. pkg. Mexican cornbread mix (I used Marie Calendar's honey cornbread mix)
1 oz. env. Buttermilk Ranch salad dressing mix (I used Coyote Ranch premade dressing)
1 sm. head romaine lettuce, shredded 
2 lg. tomatoes, chopped 
15 oz. can black beans, rinsed and drained 
15 oz. can whole kernel corn w/ red & green peppers, drained  (I just used a plain can of corn)
8 oz. pkg. shredded Mexican four-cheese blend 
6 bacon slices, cooked and crumbled 
5 green onions, chopped (I left these off)
1 avacado, chopped

Prepare cornbread according to package directions; cool and crumble. Set aside. Prepare salad dressing according to package directions. Layer a large glass bowl (so you can see how colorful it is) with half each of cornbread, lettuce, and next 6 ingredients; spoon half of dressing evenly over top. Repeat layers with remaining ingredients and dressing. Cover and chill at least 2 hours.

Chocolate Eclair Cake



1 cup water
1/2 cup butter
1 cup flour
4 large eggs
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 large box (5.1 ounces) vanilla instant pudding
3 cups milk (I used 2 cups milk, 1 cup whipping cream)
1 8 oz. container cool whip (you won’t use the whole container) or one batch of homemade whipped cream
(I used whipping cream) 
chocolate syrup or homemade chocolate sauce (I used store bought Smuckers Special Recipe)
 
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 400. Lightly grease a 9″X13″ glass baking pan.

Eclair Crust: In a medium saucepan, melt butter in water and bring to a boil. Remove from heat. Stir in flour. Mix in one egg at a time, mixing completely before adding another egg. Spread mixture into pan, covering the bottom and sides evenly. *If the sides of your pan are too greased you won’t be able to get the mixture to stay up the sides so make sure to just lightly grease.
Bake for 30-40 minutes or until golden brown (Mine only took 25-30 minutes.) You may want to check it occasionally-you don’t want to overcook the crust, it will ruin the cake! Remove from oven and let cool (don’t touch or push bubbles down).

Filling: Whip cream cheese in a medium bowl. In separate bowl make vanilla pudding. Make sure pudding is thick before mixing in with cream cheese. Slowly add pudding to cream cheese, mixing until there are no lumps. Let cool in fridge.When the crust is completely cooled, pour filling in. Top with layer of cool whip however thick you want it and serve with chocolate syrup. (I just let people put the amount of whipped cream & chocolate sauce they wanted on it.)  Garnish with strawberries.
