Sautéed Dandelion Greens with Cherry Tomatoes & Garlic

Print Recipe

Ingredients

  • 1 bunch of dandelion leaves chopped into 1-2 inch pieces
  • 1 pint of cherry tomatoes cut in half
  • 2 cloves of fresh garlic minced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil or 1 TBs butter
  • Salt or tamari
  • Optional squeeze of fresh lemon juice.

Instructions

  • Heat your oil in a skillet, cast iron if you have it, or stainless steel.
  • Add the dandelion greens, sautéeing until soft and shiny, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Add the garlic and sauté for another minute.
  • Add the cherry tomatoes and sauté until they begin to soften, about 3 minutes.
  • Turn off the heat and salt to taste; I appreciate the savory flavor tamari gives.
  • Try plain or if you prefer, with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.

Notes

Serves 2-4 depending on how hearty a greens eater you are.
