Y...I've never seen dragon fruit in our stores. You must have very exotic supermarkets. I loooooove quesadillas and burritos. I haven't made a burrito in ages. I always just use the shredded cheddar you get in the cheese section. But I have yet to master the technique to roll them. I would watch them do it in San Francisco at the little Mexican place on the corner where I lived but I just never could do it right at home. So I kinda fudge it and do my best, even though the sides come undone.JoJohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18165375435543044068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2762107274389650601.post-20201067626675319072015-05-02T04:35:35.244-04:002015-05-02T04:35:35.244-04:00I've eaten Dragon fruit and, in my opinion it ...I've eaten Dragon fruit and, in my opinion it definitely looks better than it tastes!Mike Woodcockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06660839577770854965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2762107274389650601.post-3381334588389314892015-05-02T02:06:14.458-04:002015-05-02T02:06:14.458-04:00Hi Jo - the dragon fruit looks interesting ...and ...Hi Jo - the dragon fruit looks interesting ...and I shall get one when I see one anon and give it a try .. cheers HilaryHilary Melton-Butcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17596532480645510678noreply@blogger.com
