    Excellent recipe to take to church dinners and family reunions! It is so pretty and colorful that it just demands to be tried! Also very easy to change around for your own taste. If you don't like kidney beans, then try pinto or garbanzo beans. Spring onions instead of Vidalia or perhaps a red onion. I always get rave reviews when I make it!

    Very tasty, made this for my girlfriend's birthday brunch and everyone really raved about it, everyone also had second and third helpings, there was only a pinch left in the bowl, took to work the next day, shared with one of my co workers told me I have to make it for him for their next family gathering, said a little will just make you mad, looking forward to making this for the girls again,will add fiesta steak or chicken next time or little of both, thanks Paula, very delightful

    i think this recipe is delicious!! i have to be honest i used store bought corn bread b.c i wanted to try out this recipe and didnt have time to bake corn bread. the only thing i did differently was keep out tomatoes b.c my boyfriend doesnt like them, and b.c i didnt want to lose a layer of flavor i added black beans. i did salt and pepper the layers as well. this would be awesome for a party!! i just made it for us to try. hope you all give this a try. thanks Paula!!

    If anyone makes this wonderful dish and dose'nt like it, well then the problem lies with the cook and not the recipe. I also made my cornbread with my way, omited sugar added bacon greese with the butter and always in cast iron skillet. I also used 1/2 green bell pepper and 1/2 red. The next time I make it I am going to try just plain ranch dressing instead of buttermilk ranch. I am not a big fan of buttermilk ranch but for those that are I am sure you will love it.

    I loved the recipe...but made a couple of changes...I made the corn bread then I bought a bag of green giant corn in butter sauce poured it over the corn bread that way the butter sauce could absorb into the cornbread...I also put a layer of real bacon bits and after I put the buttermilk dressing I put some sliced tomatoes and sprinkled some cheese and bacon bits and chives across the top...it was divine...but it was even better the next day. Everyone loved it!!! I also made my cornbread the way I like it THX Paula your the best!

    Yuck! Bleh! This was boring! The flavors of the ingredients didn't blend together at all. The cornbread was dry and tasteless! If not for the ranch dressing, it wouldn't have had any flavor at all... I served this dish for 4th of July; everyone had a couple of bites and left the rest on their plates -- ended up throwing the rest away because nobody would eat any more of it. I've reviewed the recipe again to see what I did wrong, but couldn't find the error(s. This is the worst Paula Deen recipe I've ever made -- certainly won't make it again. Sorry, Paula, but this recipe is just plain horrible.

    This was a huge hit. Everyone kept going back for more and more till the bowl was scraped clean. Next time I'm going southwest with chipotle cornbread and jalapeno ranch.

    This stuff is amazing! I prefer green onions, so I used those, and next time I think I'm gonna try black-eyed peas! I'm pretty excited about it... But the recipe is great just the way it is. :

    Thought this recipe looked rel. tame and boring, but had a menu that I wanted to incorporate cornbread into so decided to make it. It was unbelievable. It wound up being the best thing on the menu and what everybody asked about. I made mine the night before, which I think really helps. I also wound up with extra cornbread after I filled up the bottom of the bowl, so I crumbled the leftovers and did thin layers of the crumbled stuff inbetween the other layers. I also used a small bamboo skewer to poke a few holes all the way down to the bottom of the bowl after I poured the ranch on top to make sure it could run down some. Will def. make agin.
