Dandelion Greens Salad with diced Apples and a Balsamic Olive Oil dressing, topped with lightly toasted Almonds. The darker leaves are a few pieces of Rainbow Swiss Chard leaves.
I love this. Husband literally walks out to our little winter garden and weeds the dandelion greens before blooming. Pulls them up from low enough to keep tap root intact. Shakes any excess soil off and brings in to be prepared.
Preparation take a few minutes but is easy. Take each plant one at a time, remove root and wash greens clean of any dirt or sand. Tear or cut off the connective end. Collect greens in bowl. Once all of your greens and clean and sorted give them a final rinse. A salad spinner probably works well at this point to dry them and they are ready for salad, sandwiches, or even steamed or wilted in any number of dishes.
Please people, consider weeding your garden to feed yourself and help save the lives of beneficial insects that Mother Earth and her inhabitants need to function properly :-)

Original photo of the weed, in January. Looked so much like a geranium, and added a distraction from seeing the cement block wall in the back yard!
Mare's Tail reasonably under control after a few years' regular digging and weeding - enough to get a decent crop of spuds and beans!
As I was weeding our lawn and borders I encountered this prickly weed.
I forgot what these are called... but I remember take these leaves and sticking them on other peoples backs when I was a kid.
Possibly: Bristly Oxtongue
(Picris echioides) Family: Asteraceae
(syn. Helminthotheca echioides)
trying out my new toy - kenko extension tubes on my 28-300 zoom to get better close-ups. the only flower left in the garden was this weed popping up from under next door's fence!
still got to practice with the focus but for some quick comparisons i liked this one.
Dr. Jason Norsworthy, Division of Agriculture weed scientist, right, and graduate student Michael Houston examine soybeans used as biodetectors in a dicamba volatility study. The project also uses electronic sensors to detect dicamba in the air over a field treated with the herbicide. Norsworthy said the soybeans are more sensitive than the electronic sensors and cupping of the leaves could indicte volatized dicamba even if the sensors don't show any in the air.
