“Why is Nopale good for you?” My Uncle asked me this morning…

“It just is…”, is all I really had to share with him, so we googled it. From this page, my Uncle shared a lot of information about Nopales as well as ways to eat them.

So, this morning before 10am we were taking shots in my kitchen! We were juicing and trying out different vegetables and fruits.
“How do you like the Nopale?” I asked my Uncle…
“Well the taste is okay, but it’s texture is kind of like boogers”.

Yes, it has a sticky/mucous  type texture- but taken as a shot… the less than desirable sensation in your mouth is a quick and easy way to begin your day.
