These native foods include corn, squash, pinto beans, red and green chilis, pumpkin, and wild desert plants, e.g., prickly pear, mesquite, tepary, squawberry, and cholla. Many recipes of the Apache, Papago, Pima, Pueblo, and Navajo originated before contact was made with Spanish culture; others include foods introduced with colonization.
