Sautéed Chard

Total time: 15 minutes
   Chard, or Swiss Chard, is a slightly bitter green, reminiscent of spinach.  Both stems and leaves are eaten; some cultures preferring one over the other.  We're democratic and eat it all. 

 Ingredients:

• 8oz (240gr) chard or Swiss chard
• 2 tsp olive oil
• 2 tsp butter
• 1 tsp soy sauce

 Instructions:

• Wash the chard and trim any bad bits. 
• Stack the leaves together and fold over, the long way.  Slice into thin strips, using both leaves and stems. 
• Heat butter and oil in a large skillet. 
• Add the chard and stir-fry over medium heat until it softens and fits into the skillet. 
• Reduce heat to low and cook until tender, another 5 - 7 minutes. 
• Drizzle with soy sauce, stir and serve.
