More Chard Please!


Swiss Chard is a vegetable that is always plentiful around here. I am finally just now appreciating it, as I didn't grow up in a family that ate cooked greens. Tonight I had some stir-fried in olive oil and fresh garlic for 5 minutes; then I added a little water and balsamic vinegar and cooked it for about 3 minutes more. I dressed it with sea salt and ate it along side my salmon and rosemary roasted potatoes and I think it's fair to say that the chard was my favorite part of the meal. It's not often that you hear me say, 'more chard please', but tonight it was that good!
