Nutritious, Delicious, Free!

Go out into your yard and disrupt the soil. Then wait, watch and wonder. Before long you may be lucky enough to see a whole new crop of these wonderful weeds. Isn’t that great?

“Weeds?” you ask. “Why would I want more weeds?”

Well, quite simply, this is not just any weed — this one is packed full of omega 3, and vitamin E, and antioxidants, and iron and more!

And, don’t forget: it’s free for the picking. Just rinse off and eat it fresh in a salad, or stir fry quickly in butter. Perhaps you might even sprinkle a bit of lemon juice and salt on it.

Yummy!

Let me know what you think. I look forward to hearing your opinion too.
