Wild greens for dinner, found=free


I have found an abundance of wild mustard to eat. Sounds crazy, my mom showed me that it grows as weed in California near the coast. It probably grows many other places too. I live near the ocean so I see this everywhere this time of year, and yes, it has graced our dinner plates a few times already. I've been craving dark, green, leafy veggies for months, and it is amazing to find them for free. I'm a forager at heart and this is the ultimate. Steam it drizzled in soy sauce, or sauted with garlic and olive oil, whatever you like. The leaves are a little spiky when you pick them but that goes away when they are cooked!
