Carne Molida con Nopalitos // Ground Beef and Cactus ❤️

Подробнее о видео

I have many beautiful memories of me helping my mom cut small tender Nopalitos off the big cactus plant we had in our back yard when we were growing up, mom kept it in very good shape because it gave us many cactus pads. My sisters and i sat in the back yard under a big tree and helped my mom remove the spines off the pads, then we washed them well and either diced or sliced them for a delicious meal to come. Nopalitos as we know them are very nutritious and delicious and they are very popular here in South Texas where I was born and raised. Nopalitos can be cooked many different ways and can also be added to cold salads, many people don’t know how delicious they are until they try them. In this recipe of Carne Molida Con Nopalitos you will see how easy they are to prepare. I hope you give this recipe a try. ❤️
