Thank you for your comments and ideas.I should have mentioned the composition of my guest list. There will be 8 adults (4 of them non-latino, but three of them have been family members for several years), and 6 grandchildren under the age of 12. The tamales were a request.The idea of a nopal salad is intriguing – I haven’t had nopales in decades, and no one else among those attending Easter dinner has ever had them. Can anyone suggest a good recipe for the salad?  I like to offer sufficient variety, so that everyone will find something to eat, which is why I asked for some ideas for side dishes. There will be a fresh fruit platter.Thanks again.
