Chickweed Recipes
Egg Salad with Chickweed & Fresh Chives
6 hard boiled eggs, chopped
2/3 cup chopped chickweed greens,
1 tsp horseradish
2 tablespoons fresh chives
½ cup mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Stir mayonnaise, chives, and spices together. Mix this mixture into the chopped eggs and chickweed.
Salad Dressing
2 cups fresh chickweed greens
½ cup plain yogurt
½ cup olive oil
1 Tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp honey
¼ tsp salt
3 garlic cloves
fresh ground black pepper
Blend all of the ingredients in a blender or with an immersion blender. Serve over your favorite salad. I am experimenting with making the dressing except for the yogurt and freezing it in small containers. Then when you want to make it, you can just thaw it out and mix in some yogurt.

Hi ~ Your recipes sound delicious , hope to try them this Fall. The chickweed here has dried up , we didn’t have much rain in April or the first two weeks of May , so I’ll have to wait to try the recipes.
I shared your post about the recipes on my blog , hope you don’t mind.
