2 lb. Swiss chard
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1/4 c. olive oil (or butter)
1/4 c. & 1 tbsp. lemon juice
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. black pepper
1/4 tsp. celery salt
Steps:
Wash Swiss chard thoroughly; drain (we used my new salad spinner. it is the best kitchen utensil EVER). Remove leaves from stalks. Tear leaves into small pieces. Set aside.
Cut stalks into inch size pieces. In large saucepan saute cut up stalks, onion, garlic in butter or olive oil. Add salt, pepper, celery salt, and lemon juice to pan. Reduce heat. Add Swiss chard leaves. Cover. Simmer 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
(To this may be added 1 tablespoon capers, 1 1/2 cups chopped tomatoes and sprinkled with cheese before serving....mother and i did this and it was great! but i tried the mix before we added these and it was still super tasty.)
Pukie's Note To Pookie: We were going to make your swiss chard wraps, but didn't have mozarella and didn't want to use tomatos since they're out of season now. so sad...until next summer.
