Wild Edible–Clovers

Do you have clover in your yard? Young clover greens are a nice addition to salad, and more mature clover can be sautéed. You can throw those blooms in the salad or make fritters with them. You can eat both red and white clover. Save some of the flowers for the bees.

Don’t pass this one up. It is better than spinach for nutrition with Vitamins K, C, and A, and also has calcium and magnesium. Pick the leaves and young stems; boil or saute. This green can be eaten raw, but I really prefer it cooked. Don’t be surprised if you like it more than spinach.
