Very good, added 4 cloves of garlic and omitted at least half of the water. Also seasoned with salt and pepper.

    I found this to be a little bland, even with the addition of salt and pepper. But it is definitely an easy, healthy recipe. I would consider making this again.

    Tasty and easy. I made a few modifications, based on what I did and did not have on hand: Substituted beet greens for chard, walnuts for pine nuts, garlic for onion, whole jumbo purple raisins for chopped golden, and then added some goat cheese when it was all cooked up. Yum! ...I agree with MIssy Wombat that you can cut back on the water.

    Hi EV_food, made this salad the other night and it was delicious. I found it in Everyday Food, Ocotber 2006 edition, the only thing I changed was I added 1 tablespoon of balsamic vinegar and salt, coarse ground black peper, and a sprinkling of crushed red pepper. I am not a lover of pine nuts so I subbed it for toasted, chopped walnuts. Thank you for posting such a wonderful salad and we used it a substitute for spinach salad! Diane
