Ingredients
Ingredients (use vegan versions):
- 2 small pieces of cactus thinly sliced
- 1 poblano pepper finely diced
- 1 small onion finely diced
- 2-3 green onions finely diced
- 1 bell pepper finely diced
- 1/2 cup cilantro diced
- 2-3 medium tomatoes
- chili powder, garlic, salt, paprika, pepper as desired
- tortillas
Cactus leaves (prickly pear cactus) are available in most grocery stores particularly stores and produce stands in highly hispanic areas - I buy mine from a Mexican produce truck in my area. They are also available in a jar in the mexican part of the store - called nopalitos.
Heat all incredients in a large skillet until the peppers and cactus are darker green season to taste. Spoon over hot tortillas. I use fresh tomatoes and chop them up finely - this makes a nice sauce especially with mild chili powder.
