Greens and Beans

As I sit here RICE-ing my knee, I thought I'd tell you guys about another way I used up that swiss chard from the farm... Garlicky beans and greens, brought to you by Amy over at Eggs on Sunday. I kept the red chard to contrast with the white beans, and it made for a pretty sight :)


I ate these as is, but they'd also be good tossed with some pasta, nice and creamy! Are you ready for winter yet? just kidding, swiss chard just seems more of a winter green... Night all :)

    Ha I'm never ready for winter... hopefully this is my last one with snow :) Swiss chard though, I am always ready for. Winter greens are good friends of mine

    That looks so pretty! I've never tried swiss chard- does it taste similar to kale?

    I'm adding you to my blogroll today- hopefully that's okay, but if not just let me know!!

    white beans and greens is such a yummy combination. This looks delectable!

    Glad to see you back in action! I mean, I'm way behind, you've been back for like a week now, but I'm catching up myself.

    That's beautiful!
    I hate RICEing. Bad memories.
    I actually am ready for winter. I'd even settle for fall!

    heather- while i haven't had alot of either, i'd say kale and swiss chard are pretty similar :)

    Swiss chard and beans is such a simple and tasty combo! I sometimes like to add some Italian sausage removed from its casing and crumbled to make it more of a light meal.
