this is a great recipe - we belong to an organic farm co-op so we get a lot of swiss chard and we're always looking for new ways to use it - this is definitely one of my favorite recipes for swiss chard - and so easy to make!

Delicious! I added some cubed chicken to make it a rounded out meal, and to keep from taking away from the dish. I used spiral pasta instead of the penne because it was what I had on hand, and this was delicious! What a great, easy recipe to enjoy swiss chard! Thanks for this recipe! 
My 2 year old LOVED it!

Very quick and easy, mild tasting but pleasing nonetheless. Instead of swiss chard I substituted 9 ounces fresh spinach and 1 15 1/2 ounce can pinto beans instead of white beans for half a recipe. I did add all the garlic and only 1 teaspoon oil. I liked the texture of this recipe too. Excellent results from few ingredients. Thanks!
