Cinco De Mayo Festivities! Late Post!

Sorry for the late post!

I decided to throw a small get together at my place for Cinco De Mayo!

I made a pitcher of Margarita, loaded nachos, quesadillas, churros with cinnamon whipped cream dipping sauce, and fresh guacamole!

We also played a game called Mexican train dominoes. It’s sort of like playing regular Dominoes but a lot easier lol! Here are some pictures of the food!

What did you do for Cinco De Mayo?! Comment below!

We Can Eat Cactus?!

Cactuses are filled with so many spikes that you would think that they are totally inedible right?! WRONG! You definitely can!

Nopales (cactus pads) are a form of vegetable that is made from the prickly pear cacti. 

They can be either green or purple and are about the size of your hand. Their consistency is a cross between green beans and green peppers. They are normally eaten with eggs or steak stir fry.

They are typically grown in Mexico and Central America.

Eating Cactus can help with:

Digestion, weight loss, cancer prevention, metabolic activity, inflammation, builds strong bones, improves sleep, and more!

 Here is a link on how to eat the cactus!
