Make a refreshing wild purslane salad with cucumbers, tomatoes, jalapeno chile, lemon juice, and salt.
Actually, it’s pretty, but to the gardening books it’s considered a weed.
In Mexico it is cultivated, between rows of corn in cornfields.

We ate the salad for lunch alongside some quesadillas.
Cool, crispy, and refreshing.
