Popis:	Fifty‐eight raw food samples were analyzed for proximate, acid detergent fiber (ADF) and dietary (soluble & insoluble) fiber and mineral composition. Food samples were from both home gardens and samples collected from desert plants. The two major sources were bean and corn samples. Bean samples averaged 22.72% (19.66% to 25.6%) protein and 7.16% ADF. Corn samples ranged from 9.2% to 12.2% protein and cactus pads ranged from 0.5% to 0.9% protein and from 0.4% to 2.4% ADF. Cactus fruit ranged from 0.8% to 3.4% protein and 3.6% to 10.7% ADF. The wild greens ranged from 5.1% to 7.6% protein and from 4.4% to 10.7% ADF. Total dietary fiber (TDF) ranged from 1.37% to 69.86% and soluble fiber from 0.05% to 7.64%.
