This recipe is absolutely amazing, and the bitterness of the dandelion greens is beautifully countered by the sweetness of the apples and creaminess of the dressing. Make sure to use a very large bunch of dandelions (I used about 5 plants, and wished I’d had more).

Yum! Just had it for lunch and dinner today. I added finely chopped celery and raisins to it. The raisins added the perfect sweet bite to the greens and tahini. For dinner I sprinkled in some pine nuts and cherry tomatos.
