Ensalada de Nopalitos Cactus Salad recipe post vegan

[Guest guest]

I also made this, luckily she had the cactus from her yard cleaned and ready to

use. It's too hard to prepare so I buy is usually in a jar at the Latin food

isle of the market. Cactus tastes very similar to green beans. Don't pass it

up if you've never tried it. This is a good easy dish to prepare.

3 cups diced nopll cactus

1/2 cup diced radishes

1/4 cup chopped cilantro leaves

1/2 cup green onions chopped

1-2 serrano chiles, seeded and chopped

3 Tblspns. olive oil

2 Tblspns. fresh lime juice

1/4 tsp. dried oregano

(Optional silces olives)

 

 

Rinse cactus and drain, place in salad bowl with tomato, onions, radishes,

chiles and cilantro. Whisk together the olive oil, lime juice, oregano, salt &

or you can saute cactus with onions and scarmbled eggs and make a burrito. Give

it a try (:- )))))
