Ingredients
Swiss Chard, about 24 ounces (I used two bags of Trader Joe's rainbow chard and a giant mound of spinach)--you can really use any soft fresh green2 cans chick peas, rinsed and drained2 can (organic) diced tomatoes10 cloves garlic, or to taste1/4 cup olive oilchopped fresh italian parsleythymepepperkosher saltred pepper flakes
Saute chard/spinach (all you can fit) in a large pot in a little olive oil over med heat. Put lid on to help wilt. Stir frequently and add more until all is added. Cook, covered, stirring, until it all wilts. Push chard to side, add a bit more oil, saute the finely chopped garlic. Let cook a minute or so. Add chick peas and tomatoes. Cover, turn heat to low, and simmer about 30 minutes. Chard stems should be quite tender and flavors married. Add parsly, salt, pepper, a little thyme (a pinch dry), and red pepper flakes, cook until parley is wilted and adjust seasonings to taste. You can eat it now or let it cook a bit longer to intensify the flavors.
