EATING: Swiss Chard

The Garden has been behaving. We have gotten on top of those pesky leaf miners at least on the chard. Which by coincidence we are having for supper with a sheppards pie, and I wanted to write a post about cause I am bored, chard is delicious, and this is the recipe we are using today.

Swiss Chard with Olives, Garlic, Currants, and Feta

you will need

Swiss Chard - as much as you want
Olives - handfull or as much as you want
Garlic - 1 clove or as much as you want
Currants - handfull or as much as you want
Feta - Crumbled - handful or as much as you want
Salt N Pepa - Push It as much as you want

So first things first get the chard from your garden, you have a garden right? with greens in it? oh you don't ok well grab the chard from your refrigerator.

Wash/rinse your chard, shake excess water off, bunch chard together and cut 1 inch strips or how ever big you like it, chop garlic finely, put pan or pot on medium heat, add a small amount of oil (not really needed).
Once pan is hot add chard, after 30seconds add garlic, wait another 30seconds turn heat source off so as to not over cook "wilt" your chard, add olives and currants, and season with salt and pepper, once doled out sprinkle feta on top.
Ingredients, Check
Ingredients chopped,check!
Ingredients in pot, Check!
Cooked? Check!, oh look at that the bread is done too.
Add Feta, and eat. photographing food is hard.
Thats it Thanks
Peace, I'm out
