Swiss Chard is not a common veggie in most of North America. It is very rich in iron.Some people say you need to acquire a taste for it. It is rather like strong cabbage. Very low calorie

This was great. I substituted 1/2 cup of pancetta for the bacon. I will make this again

    First time to use Swiss Chard this year from our garden, I found this recipe very nice. Even was good reheated.

    My Italian grandmother would be very pleased with you. Swiss Chard was a staple on her table, and your recipe is a dead-ringer for hers. Buon appetito!

    This is pretty much the way I've always prepared chard. It's simple and super fast (especially if you prep ahead of time! washed and chopped greens can be stored in a plastic bag in the refrigerator for several days until you need them). Nice additions: a pinch of salt, a couple pignola nuts, a splash of balsamic vinegar or sherry.
