In a large bowl, crumble the cornbread until pieces are about pea sized or smaller. Add the bacon, onion, jalapeno chile pepper, tomato, eggs, dill pickle, and pimiento; mix together thoroughly. Add the mayonnaise, and combine well. Mixing the dry ingredients before adding in the mayonnaise helps to disperse the ingredients evenly throughout the salad.
If the salad seems to dry, add 1 teaspoon mayonnaise at a time until it is well coating. Remember, the cornbread is going to absorb some of the liquid from the tomatoes and the mayonnaise, so it will not be as dry when you are ready to serve it, as it seems when mixing it.
Add the garlic salt, parsley, and black pepper, tasting to make sure it is to your liking. Adjust seasoning if needed.
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
Makes approximately 6 servings.
* Pimientos are roasted sweet red peppers that have been preserved in oil. TIP: After opening and using part of a jar of pimientos, to prolong life of remaining pimientos, add a teaspoon of white vinegar and refrigerate.
