Fiesta Corn Salad

5-6 cans white *shoepeg corn (rinse well, strain water)
2 bunches green onion chopped
3-4 tomatoes - diced
1/2 bunch snipped cilantro
garlic powder to taste
salt and pepper to taste
1/2 - 3/4 C. mayonnaise
1 bag Fritos corn chips

In mixing bowl, add rinsed corn, onions, cilantro, salt, pepper and garlic, mix well. Add mayonnaise, stirring well. Add tomatoes and refrigerate for 3-5 hours. Just before serving, add crunched up frito corn chips on top.

*Shoepeg corn is hard to find. I have only found it in the 'Green Giant' brand. It is a sweeter, smaller, and crunchier corn that just regular canned corn. I have also used a mixture of the 3 cans shoepeg corn and 3 cans fiesta corn blend (it has red and green peppers) which just added a little more color!* This is a fun summer salad.
