I make dandelion salad each spring. I clean and wash the greens and drain well. I boil a potato and remove skins, chop as for potato salad. In a large skillet, I saute chopped onions in about 1 tbsp oil, have oil hot and add the greens. Salt to taste. Stir until wilted, add the potatoes and serve. I and my family loves it. You can add boiled chopped eggs or anything you would like.
Very good advice for all, especially those with IBS!!
