**Instructions:**
1. Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat.
2. Add garlic and sauté until fragrant.
3. Toss in the dandelion greens and cook for 3–5 minutes until wilted.
4. Finish with lemon juice, salt, and a pinch of chili flakes.
The slight bitterness of the greens balanced perfectly with the garlic and lemon, making it a fantastic side dish or a topping for toasted bread.

Next time you spot something unusual moving through your grass or garden, take a closer look. You might just discover your new favorite recipe!
