It’s also the perfect dish to make if your kitchen is under construction like mine was when I made this dish. We had a barbecue that night, and our wall had been cut out of the kitchen and we had no oven. So I had to make something cold and easy to make. I borrowed my parents’ kitchen and threw this together.
This is definitely the most southern dish I’ve ever made because it had Fritos and mayonnaise, but it was a huge hit at the barbecue so I highly recommend it if you need to bring a side dish to a summer party. Keep reading to see how I put this together.
