CACTUS PADDLE SALAD (NOPALES SALAD)



Cactus Paddle Salad (Nopales Salad) image

If you can't get fresh nopales, you can substitute a 12 - 15 ounce jar of the cactus pieces, drained. If you can't find Mexican queso fresco, you can substitue feta cheese--but the feta may be saltier than the queso so adjust your seasoning.
