I stopped by the local grocery store a few days ago and picked up a bag of nopalitos. They have ladies there in the store cleaning and dicing the cactus pads daily. Lucky me! Some people are put off by the sliminess of them but I think they are delicious! They make a delicious and healthy side dish for a Mexican meal. They have Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Calcium and Iron.
I just saute them with onion, garlic, zuchini, jalapeno and tomato. I forgot to take the picture before we ate, so this is what was left...
