Directions

Cut the ends off the cactus fruit and remove the outer skin with a sharp knife. Slice the fruit in half lengthwise and remove the seeds with a spoon.
Cut the cactus fruit, tomato, and avocado into 1/4” pieces.
Cut the stem end off the serrano chile and slice lengthwise. Remove the seeds and veins and finely chop.
Remove the cilantro stems and finely chop.
Place all ingredients in a medium mixing bowl and gently stir until all ingredients are well mixed. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes so that the flavor blends and concentrates.
