The Nopal Smoothie. I made up my smoothie but mine was minus the avocado. Mine got crushed in transit so I went to the shop to buy another.
When I was cutting it I realised it was a ripen at home one! Doh!! It took me ages to cut it in half and then I couldn’t remove the stone or skin.
Grrr… No worries though, it tasted great without the avocado in. I cannot wait to pick one up next week though I am sure it will be delicious.
So what do you think? Do you fancy trying the recipe out? With or without the avocado, ha!!
Tasty, very tasty.
It tasted great. I also made one up for my Teenage Son and asked him what he thought of it. “It tastes pretty great to be fair” Was his reply! A big thumbs up from us then!!
