    I make this all the time, but the calorie count is way off here! Swiss chard only has 7 calories per cup, so this calorie count is over by 126 calories - it's just 60 calories per serving. Some nice variations are to add fresh lemon zest, pine nuts and raisins, or grate fresh nutmeg and some OJ. - 5/22/10

    My mother used to grow Swiss chard in her garden and we had it often but I had forgotten how delicious it is. I fixed this as a side dish for dinner this evening and both hubby and I loved it.

    I tried this for the first time with Swiss chard from my CSA. I had never had Swiss chard before and was pleasantly surprised. I put this over whole wheat pasta and it was delicious! - 7/12/08
