Eating Weeds

"You're feeding us weeds??!!" screamed my husband.

"Yep."

Here are photos of the milkweed flower buds after I boiled them.
 For the recipe:  Crustless Milkweed Flower Quiche

 Just before it went into the oven
After this went into the oven, I found out I may want to coarsely chop the buds.  That will be for the next time.
