Nopales Tlayuda (Oaxacan Cactus Pizza)
This street food specialty from Oaxaca is light on work and heavy on healthy flavors. A toasted tortilla gets topped with from-scratch refried beans, an arsenal of vegetables including pickled cactus (nopales), and Oaxacan cheese. Eat it by the slice, or fold it up like a sandwich!
