Nopales Cactus Recipe
These are from my "spineless" nopales cactus, however they do have impossible to see spines that hurt. Wash spineless "baby" leaves/paddles with a washcloth to remove spines. Stack and slice on an angle (appearance only). Toss with olive oil and spread out evenly on a parchment paper lined baking pan. Bake/roast at 425ยบ until browned a tiny bit, tossing occasionally. Tastes and looks like green beans! You can use leftovers in a salad.
