This was de-lish! Quick and easy, used whole grain fettuccine, added broccoli, cauliflower, lacinato kale, extra onion and garlic. Hit the spot!

This is my new favourite way to use up all the swiss chard in my garden! I used the stems too and didn't even chop them all that small. I doubled the garlic and added it at the end of the sauteing to keep it pungent. I didn't have tomatoes on hand so I used 2 tbsp of tomato paste instead. Still super tasty!

I thought this was a very nice pasta dinner. Pretty healthy for us too. The man didn't even complain about there being no meat. I used some frozen swiss chard I had from my garden and I would think it would be even better with fresh. I will definately have to remember this one in the summer. I think I may increase the amount of sour cream and milk to give it more sauce and maybe more garlic, but I am a big fan of garlic and that is a personal preference. Thanks Derf for a great dinner!

I love this pasta dish! I did cook the chard a little longer than called for and the tomatoes too. All the flavors tasted great and it looked so pretty! I added just a little more sour cream too. Thanks for a dish I will definately make again!!!
