The rich, earthy flavor of Swiss Chard pairs perfectly with the sweet acidity of balsamic vinegar.

Prep time: 5 minutes
Cook time: 8 minutes
Serves: 4

1 large bunch Swiss chard, rinsed and coarsely chopped, stems separated from the leaves.
1-2 TB balsamic vinegar

Place chard stems in a vegetable steamer with an inch of water in the bottom. Bring to a boil over medium heat and steam for 3 minutes. Add the leaves and steam for another 4-5 minutes or until tender. Distribute to serving plates and drizzle with balsamic vinegar.

This method will also work with spinach.
