multiplying the chard

An impromptu family dinner, so what do you do? Well, pasta makes everything bigger!

I bought some beautiful red ruby swiss chard at Publix the other day. I'd never bought it before, but it was absolutely fresh, crisp and beautiful, so I had to give it a try. With the bro and his kids on the way over, it was time to multiply dinner...

Started with spinach nuggets from the produce section at Publix. Delish, healthy and easy apps! Then we had corn on the cob, Italian swiss chard (garlic & red pepper with olive oil) and whole grain spaghetti. For dessert? Baked peaches from the farmers market! Complete with vanilla ice cream my brother brought over. See, delish meal on a moment's notice and a shoestring budget. YUM!
