As a challenge I have been trying to work with only ingredients

Corn tortillas, Avocados, Turkey, Tomatoes, peppers

For greens: amarinth, nettles, purslane, chickweed, plantain, lambsquarter are not bitter. Dandelion greens when young are not bitter. Both older dandelion and curled dock can be soaked in several changes of water or boiled to reduce bitterness. Young pokeweed is not bitter, but don't fool with the mature plants as they become toxic.

I have actually tried to grow amaranth before by planting some grains I got from the store. It grew but I realized I had no idea if amaranth for greens versus grains were different cultivars or any other growing requirement for tasty greens for that matter. So I opted against trying to eat it.

My guess would be it was the same. It isn't as if Monsanto is trying to develop GMO's for amaranth, or that anyone would think it worthwhile to hybridize. I'm almost certain it was the same species.

Ive never done a diet like this but Ive cooked dishes like this and the hardest part is definetly the meat

Turkey is the only thing you can really make

I also forgot to mention wild asparagus, as well as the fiddlehead fern. The camas root, somewhat similar to potato was a staple of the Nez Perce. Another great root is the jerusalem artichoke (pic related). I just collected a bowl full a few days ago. And don't forget the cattail, arguably the best all around native food source. The nuts and berries are too numerous to mention.

Are you insane? Rabbit, squirrel, prairie chicken, waterfowl too numerous to mention, venison, elk, bison, raccoon, bear, etc. As far as fish, name one and it's probably native.

How does the Jerusalem artichoke taste is it similar to a potato or more like a carrot or beet?

Snakehead.

Are rabbits not introduced?

>>8614312
True, though I think he might have meant it in terms of what you can get at a normal grocery store.

It tastes like a slightly sweeter than a regular potato. I coated that batch with olive oil and roasted in the oven at 400F. I have boiled and mashed them before and they were excellent. One of my favorite native wild foods. Cattails as well. Almost everything of the cattail is edible. Just make sure the water source is not polluted, which sad to say, is going to get harder and harder to find in the coming years.

Good job. I have a snakehead especially for (you).

>>8614557
No. Numerous species, including the cottontail are native.

He said America, not Australia.
