About
Crack Corn Salad is a bright golden salad that basically tastes like all the best parts of food put together. Seriously, you’ve never had a salad quite like this before. The corn adds sweetness and summery flavor, the bacon bits add meatiness and crunch, and the cheddar cheese brings sharpness. With some creamy, tangy ranch and spicy jalapeño, Crack Corn Salad is truly addictive. You can whip up this dish in 10 minutes or less, and you’ll be doing just that over and over again!
