Balsamic Roasted Chard

Chard is one of those intimidating vegetables for many of the moms I teach. Once you make this recipe, all fear will be gone! It is one of the most vitamin rich veggies, packed with vitamin C and iron. I have had many skeptics transformed by this simple and delicious preparation.

Heat oven to 450 degrees

1-2 heads Swiss chard, chopped in 1-2 inch strips with tough ribs removed

Extra virgin olive oil

Kosher salt

Balsamic vinegar

Lay chopped chard out on a sheet pan. Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil until chard is lightly coated. Sprinkle with Kosher salt. Roast for approximately five minutes. Remove and drizzle with balsamic vinegar to taste.
