Prepare cornbread mix according to package directions, adding chiles. Cool and crumble.
Process light mayonnaise and next 6 ingredients (thru Salt)in a food processor or blender until smooth, stopping to scrape down sides. Serve on dressing on the side (to avoid soagy salad).
Layer a 4-quart bowl with half of lettuce, half of crumbled cornbread, black beans, corn/red peppers, 1/2 of Cheddar cheese, and red onions, and avocado.
Add second layer of lettuce, cheddar cheese and cornbread.
Cover and chill 1 to 2 hours. Garnish, with Green Onions if desired.
