The "Hills Have Eyes" Franchise And Prickly Pear Cactus Recipes

This week we're discussing the "Hills Have Eyes" franchise. There are four movies total in the series. They were written/directed/produced by Wes Craven (who also did the "Nightmare On Elm Street" and "Scream" franchises). The numbering is a bit confusing. There's the 1977 film, then a "part 2", then a remake (with the same name as the original), then a "2" (which is a sequel to the remake). The original is considered a classic (though the pacing is a little slow for my taste). The remake is one of those rare films that might be even better than the original 

For recipes this week I went with a desert theme. The prickly pear cactus has been used for thousands of years in Mexican dishes. You can have a prickly pear cactus smoothie, sorbet, or syrup. It can even be used in place of potatoes in French fries. For more info check Healthline.com here
