Turkey & Swiss Sandwich With Chickweed & Violet Flowers - Wild Edible Recipes

In this video we make a turkey and Swiss cheese sandwich with chickweed and violet flowers. Chickweed and violet flowers are a tasty and nutritious replacement for lettuce on sandwiches, and is one of the many ways to use wild edible in normal recipes. Chickweed is a small lawn loving plant that is edible throughout most of the year and it very mild in taste. Violet flowers are a common sight in the spring and make a delicious addition to any wild edible recipe. This turkey and Swiss sandwich will be toasted for extra enjoyment and makes a very hearty and healthy lunch.

Chickweed can easily be gathered by plucking the tender young tops from the spring rosettes, and violet flowers can be easily plucked from their base. It only takes a few minutes to gather enough for a sandwich and only a few more for a salad. These are edible pants that are easy to incorporate and use in any recipe because of their taste. This can be combined with a garlic mustard dip, wild lettuce greens on the side, or even potato chips for a easy and healthy wild edible lunch.
