Snacking on a sunny day.

What a beautiful day today.  I have been out since early this morning cleaning up my wineberry patches and this is what I have been seeing.  This is garlic mustard.  It is an invasive plant so what better way to control it than to eat it!! The leaves are great mixed with other greens in a salad.  Spring is the best time for the leaves as they taste more bitter as they get older.  The flowers are edible also.  If you find an extra large plant late in the fall you can pull it up, clean the roots and slice them very thin for a horseradish type treat.  Enjoy.
