Author Notes: was testing out dandelion greens after hearing how healthy they were and was seeking a tasty way to prepare
fruits certainly could be added to, and varied - merrilymerrilymerrily

Serves 2-4

2 cups dandelion greens
1-2 cup strawberries
1 cup green grapes
2 tablespoons no or low fat plain yogurt
2 teaspoons agave syrup or honey

find and pick many (10- 20) young dandelions plants-leaves only 3 inches long or less, pre-flowering stage from a non-chemically treated grassy area
trim roots off plants and thoroughly wash leaves, you will want enough leaves to loosely fill a 2 cup container
wash and chop 1-2 cups of strawberries
wash and chop approx. 1 cup green grapes ( or red grapes, or mandarin oranges or get imaginative)
take 2 tablespoons no-fat or low fat plain yogurt and 2 teaspoons agave syrup or honey and blend
mix greens, strawberries and grapes in bowl and drizzle with sweetened yogurt dressing serve immediately or keep chilled
