What to do with Chard!

The beautiful thing about chard, is it's perfect when it's prepared simply. Wash the leaves, and steam it covered in a pan. Just a little water so that it doesn’t stick, but you don’t want to add a lot of water. It has plenty. Don’t use oil yet.

Let it cook down, and be sure not to over do it. Plate it, and op it off with a little olive oil, sea salt, and fresh lemon. That's it! The flavor of the chard itself is wonderful.
