When you're craving a flavorful, spicy, shareable, and filling dinner, it's hard to beat a Mexican restaurant. There is just something about sitting down with friends and family to share tacos, salsa, bean dip, and other favorites that makes it the perfect dining experience.

If you’ve ever been to Mexico, you’ll know that the arid and semi-arid landscapes of the country are dotted with nopal cacti. Prickly, with distinctive oval- and circular-shaped paddles, the cactus is not just a key part of the country’s scenery, but also its culture and its cuisine, too. In fact, research suggests that nopal pads were first cultivated as a food source thousands of years ago, but they’re still enjoyed across Mexico today. Known as nopales, or prickly pear, they can be added to salads or tacos, or processed into smoothies and dips. And they’re also pretty nutritious. If you’re interested in cooking with nopales, here’s what you need to know (plus recipe inspiration!).

We have long been using egg-shaped potatoes as a base for eggy recipes, such as these Deviled Potatoes, a play on the classic deviled egg. However, new discoveries are showing that they are similar in ways that transcend their appearance and reach into the realm of functionality. Can potatoes really serve as egg replacers? These startups are showcasing the unique properties of tubers that help them be just that.
