Pico de Gallo salad and Chili and corn bread in a jar?

...For Fathers day I wanted to cook something special for the best father (after mine, of course:) in the world...my Mike...

and after finding this recipe here, decided to give it a try...Soo easy, so good and so healthy!
Pico de Gallo Salad
Recipe by"La Kocinera"

2 Tomatoes, chopped
½ bunch fresh Cilantro, chopped
½ Red Onion, chopped
Juice of 1-2 Limes
1 can Corn, drained
1 can Black Beans, drained and rinsed
1-2 JalapeƱos, finely diced
Salt and Pepper, to taste

Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and refrigerate to chill.
Serve with chips, on its own, or as a topping for just about anything. 
I doubled it to make more, didn't use the jalapeƱos (hate spicy stuff) and also added two avocados...delish...


...Also I saw this wonderful idea here, so it was time to try!
You basically make Chili and then  scooped it into the jars. Then I mixed up cornbread batter and spooned it on top and baked it for like 15 min.
Soo good!...Give it a try!
