SERVES 4

• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 1 small yellow onion, chopped
• 1 bunch dandelion greens, coarsely chopped
• ½ lime, cut into wedges
• 1 teaspoon red chili pepper flakes

1. Heat oil in a cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add onion, cover, and cook until soft. Add greens and stir, allowing them to cook for two minutes.
