Swiss Chard
This leafy green is available from early spring through the winter from farms with high tunnels or greenhouses. Get to know this tasty, versitile plant by pairing with eggs, fish, fruit, crisp peppers, or roasted root crops. It also chops up beautifully to add to grain salads after a 2 minute sautee or steam.
