Even Cowboys Like Prickly Pear (Paperback)

You will find Prickly Pear recipes ranging from drinks/appetizers to main dishes/desserts and everything in between.

Jean Groen is a featured teacher at the first annual Prickly Pear Festival to be held in Superior, AZ. She also is a favorite teacher at Boyce Thompson Arboretum.
