Swiss Chard, a Love Story

As far as I'm concerned, swiss chard is an OK vegetable. Nothing wrong with it, but nothing particularly exciting, either. So when we got swiss chard in our CSA again I decided to try something a little different from my usual. And it turned out to be soooo delicious! Liel kept coming back for more, and she's usually pretty neutral about vegetables. Here's what I did:

Chop swiss chard stems and leaves seperately. Sautee an onion til golden, then add the chard stems. Sautee another couple minutes, then add leaves, some chopped raisins, chopped kalamata olives, and a bit of water. Simmer til tender and sprinkle with toasted walnuts!
