01.15.20 Swiss Chard

I visited my Dad in North Park today. He supports his tiny edible garden in the front patio of their duplex with bokashi composting. Today, he had some swiss chard ready to share.

To come clear, chard is not my favorite green. However, if you sauté some onions in avocado oil for about 5 minutes to release the sweet, sultry flavor, then add in some mushrooms, salt and cumin right before a last hurrah with the chard, you can make a vegetable that even my 10 year old admires. She asked for seconds at dinner tonight!
