Kick your taco night up a notch with one of our favorite products from our tortilla section: Mi Abuelita Bonita Nopal Corn Tortillas. Nopal (also known as the “prickly pear,” or, more commonly, cactus) is a truly underrated vegetable—it’s high in both fiber and calcium, yet low in cholesterol, and it adds great flavor to these corn tortillas!

Paul Holmes began farming a few acres in Winters in the late 1980s. Today this 200-acre farm, co-owned by Paul Holmes, Hector Melendez-Lopez and Paul Underhill produces more than 100 crops each year, including spring, summer and winter vegetables, as well as stone fruit, citrus and nuts.
Once upon a time, Cindy Callahan needed a way to keep her pasture grasses under control, so she bought sheep. That one innocent act triggered what her son Liam calls, “a series of events that placed our family at the forefront of the American revival in artisan cheese making. It also tapped into the best in each of us, and resulted in work that feels more like a creative process than toll and labor.” Bellwether’s philosophy is simple; use the highest quality milk available to make the best cheeses possible. Cindy and her family bring us some of the best Ricotta we’ve ever tasted, and we’re proud to carry this world-class cheese in Nugget Markets. Liam challenged us to, “Take a bite out of any of our cheeses, and you’ll taste the difference one family’s commitment to quality can make,” and we couldn’t agree more!
