Iguana Recipes
IGUANA
Can't get more local than my backyard. Knowing that iguana have totally ruined gardens (which now contain pineapple as it can defend itself and blackberries as iguana don't seem to like them), my cousin sent me an article, "Eating the Enemy" from Audubon magazine. Iguana is a seriously invasive species in south Florida, threatening many native plants and ruining many gardens. They love hibiscus and other beautiful things in the yard. The article ends by saying "There's a magical thing that happens once you sprinkle some pepper on wild game -- suddenly it's food."
