PRICKLY PEAR

One my favourite fruits is the prickly pear which is the cactus. When ripe, it is very sweet and tasty.

Back home, we have the prickly pear ice cream too 😋

It come in different colours, red, pink, orange, and green and is a good source of fiber and vitamins such as Magnesium, Vitamin C, Potassium and Calcium.

It has many health benefits such as aiding in weight loss, lowering blood sugar level for diabetes and as an antioxidant to protect liver.

If it doesn't grow in your country, you can find them the import section of the supermarkets.

Do you know this fruit and have you tried it?
