I don't know about grass, but leaves from the Dandelion plant often found interspersed amongst the grass are fine in a Mediterranean type salad, provided there's no toxic chemicals about. They are somewhat bitter. Dress using a little olive oil, white wine vinegar, salt and pepper.

You could also potentially use them (Dandelion in lieu of Endive, Chicory or Spinach) in Horta, a Greek recipe for cooked bitter greens, with olive oil, lemon, salt and pepper, which when seasoned / done right is very tasty with a good toasted sourdough or do it in an Italian style cooked in the pan with oil and garlic, salt pepper. (Don't burn the garlic)

Best
