    For your Corn salad add you mayo and let it marinate in refrigerator for a few hours and only add Fritos when you are ready to eat it. That’s how we do it. It’s awesome.

    Good evening Bunkey’s !!! These all 3 looked amazing .. Jessica, next time mix everything except the onion, then take you out some , then add the onion for Bunkey !! They would still be great without the onion and you would have great salads too ! I’d say the black bean one with the chips was spot on !! Blessings to you both and Daisy and enjoy !! 🙏❤️

    We make that pistachio fluff, too! For Christmas, we grind up cranberries in a food processor and make the fluff salad with marshmallows, cranberries, Cool Whip, and vanilla pudding mix. I also make one with cheesecake pudding, marshmallows, Cool Whip, and pineapple and coconut (pina colada type) and sometimes canned mandarin oranges. You can totally play around with so many flavors! The base is always Cool Whip, pudding mix, and marshmallows. The flavors and fruit combos are endless!

      I hate class or oysters, so when Mom made Clam Chowder, she would separate a portion for me before adding the clams. I got potatoes soup while everyone else enjoyed their chowder. Best of all, she only had to make 1 dinner instead of 2 to make everyone happy. Thank you for the summer salad ideas.

    My mama always made the Watergate salad, but we called it “marshmallow fluff”! We added pecans, instead of walnuts and coconut and cherries! We eat the Cowboy Caviar with Scoops, and we also put cilantro in it! Those salads came at just the right time! I have a family bbq coming up in 2 weeks and I can’t wait to make a couple of these! It brought back some very fun memories that I had forgotten about! Thank y’all ❤

    Gotta say - Destin is the prettiest place we have traveled. We stayed at the Army Recreation area campground right on the water! Amazing! AND the Watergate Salad - I fix it at Christmas and add a drop or two of green food coloring to make it a little greener and then the red cherries on top. Festive!!! AND the Frito Corn salad - I go ahead and add the mayo to the veggies and then just add the Fritos when we eat it. The flavors meld more. I actually bought Fritos at the grocery store today to make this before I saw your video!

    I make the Frito Corn Salad and am requested at every event to bring it. There are never any left overs to bring home. I use 3 different colors of bell peppers instead of one. I usually chop all my vegetables and add corn the night before. Cover and refrigerate overnight. In the morning I add my cheese, frito and mayo usually a few hours before serving. The chips do not get mushy but do soften a bit. Love this recipe.

    Looks delicious ! I would divide it. Add the onions to half of it. That way both of you can enjoy it. Enjoy your days you have left there. Every recipe I have tried my family loves them. I made the smoked corn dip and my grandchildren couldn’t get enough of it. My grandson asked me today to make him some more. It is addictive. I love your videos, it makes my day. I have been going back and watching years ago. The other night I watched the bird in the dryer. I laughed so hard. Keep the videos coming but mostly enjoy your travels.❤️❤️

  • @jamijessie4287

    I make the corn salad only Mexican style- use del monte Mexican corn drained, Mayo add it in as you make it- Half packet ranch dressing, tablespoon of taco seasoning onion (optional) shredded cheese mix together and before serving add crushed chips.
    For the Cowboy Caviar- I have always added a cheap Italian dressing along with your seasonings and let it sit overnight serve with tortilla chips.

    My family calls the Watergate Salad “Green Stuff”. One of the kids requested it by that name one time and it stuck. My family never added cherries or coconut flakes. And instead of walnuts, they used pecans. I love it their way, but I think I’m gonna give your mama’s recipe a try because I love all of the ingredients she includes.

    Watergate salad is my niece’s favorite. I make it every Christmas for her. I’m going to have to add coconut because she loves anything coconut. Have never added coconut or cherries. We call it “green stuff” because my sweet Grandmother called it “green stuff” when her mind started to go because she couldn’t remember Watergate salad. My favorite summer salad is arugula, feta & watermelon. It’s the best! Hilarious thing about arugula is I bought a container of arugula at Walmart. It had a full grown grasshopper in it. I almost made the darn salad with him in it because I didn’t have my glasses on. Couldn’t eat arugula for a long time after that. I would see eyes staring up at me every time I looked at a plate of arugula. 😂

My recipe has the black beans, corn, jarred mild jalapeño peppers, a little juice from the peppers, onions, fresh chopped tomatoes, garlic, cilantro, of course, and lime juice from about 1-2 limes. That’s all I put in, and it’s also amazing!!
