A Salad From Edible Weeds

In the spring, our yards begin to green up and fill in with wonderful foliage.

Some of us attempt to limit the spread of weeds by killing or pulling them. Really, a weed is just another plant that happens to be in the wrong place.

However, I welcome weeds, especially weeds that I can eat. Many plants that we consider to be weeds are, in fact, herbs. They have many culinary as well as medicinal properties.

In my yard, I have quite a few edible weeds. Spring is the best time to make a salad from them, too. The leaves are young and tender. As they get older, they tend to get more bitter-tasting, so it’s best to use young leaves.

Before going out and picking weeds, make 100% sure you know exactly what you are picking. Look at pictures and guidebooks to help you. If there is any doubt, do not pick a plant—better safe than sorry!

Wherever you pick weeds, be certain that no one has used pesticides or herbicides on them.

Recipe #1

Where does this incredible dish stem from?

Although many attribute its origin to Italy, the Caesar Salad actually hails from Mexico. A restaurateur by the name of Caesar Cardini is the imagination behind this incredible grub. It’s hard to believe that this dish from Tijuana, Mexico (1920) is hugely popular today.

There are a few debates about the proper creation of this salad.

As with many recipes that are past down through the ages, there are constant debates on how to create the perfect Caesar Salad. Perhaps you would like to weigh in in the comments below? Let us know what side of the arguments you settle on.

To chop or to tear?

Some prefer to chop their Romaine oh so delicately with a sharp knife. Others will tell you that tearing the lettuce by hand allows for little niches to snag the dressing ensuring flavour in every bite. Others pay no mind at all to how they ready their lettuce. Something tells me all will be forgotten once the THC oil kicks in. How do you prepare your Caesar salad lettuce?

Oil or creamy dressing?

It is likely that at some point you will experience an oil only Caesar Salad dressing. In fact, many people believe that this is the only way to serve Caesar salad. Others will tell you that this is not a Caesar Salad dressing at all. Their belief is that a Caesar Salad dressing is creamy, thick, with only a touch of oil. You will soon see that we enjoy a combination dressing. Our rendition is rich and creamy with a healthy dose of cannabis oil for balance.

Here are a couple ideas of when to serve your Cannabis Caesar Salad:
