Preparation
Step 1
Clean the chard, remove stems, and coarsely chop.
Place in a steamer basket over boiling water and steam for about 3 minutes. (If you decide to use the stems as well, place the chopped stems in the steamer basket first and steam for 2 minutes before adding the chard leaves.) Remove from steamer and drain well. Place in a large bowl. Add 1/8 cup almond meal and the remaining seasonings and toss well to mix. Taste and add a bit more almond meal if you’d like a richer flavor.
Hints: This is delicious warm, or at room temperature. We even ate it cold for breakfast the next day! We also used it as a topping for a pizza crust by spreading the seasoned greens over the uncooked pizza crust in a thin layer, adding some sliced mushrooms, sliced onions, and sliced red peppers and grilling for about 10 minutes on the gas grill outside. We all agreed it was surprisingly wonderful.
