Swiss Chard Recipe

swiss chard

When i browsed the aisles of the produce department yesterday, I eyed the Swiss Chard again. I always keep meaning to try it, but in the past I have always past it up for more familiar greens, like collards, mustard, and turnips. Well yesterday, I finally decided to give Swiss Chard a chance. I got the biggest, prettiest bunch to take home with me. I cooked it very simply and before I went to grab my pepper sauce, I tasted them, expecting to find a bitter green in need of anything to give them a little help. However, I couldn’t believe what my taste-buds discovered, a wonderfully flavored, mild green, different than anything I’ve tasted. I was really disappointed in myself because I hadn’t tried them sooner. I have been missing out on such a wonderful vegetable.
