Quest 55: Eenie & Meenie's Chard Chips
Eenie and Meenie have been working hard in the garden to bring about a bounty of fresh veggies for us to enjoy. Today, we will enjoy Swiss Chard in a delicious way by making them into chips. Lots of good flavor and even health-ish too. Enjoy!Gear!
1 bunch of Swiss Chard
Olive Oil - Flavored if you wish
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Sheet Pan
Aluminum Foil
Quest!
First, scurry over to the garden, farmer's market or local grocery store and pick out some lovely Swiss Chard - This variety happens to be Rainbow Chard, but this recipe works well for other greens such as Kale.
Preheat the over to 400 degrees F.With a chef knife, carefully separate the greens from the stems. You can use the stems for some other use, but we won't be using them today. Cut the greens into 3 inch pieces.
On a sheet pan lined with aluminum foil, spread out the greens so they are in a single layer. They will look rather fluffy at this point.
Sprinkle with salt and pepper and Parmesan cheese evenly over all the chard. Drizzle with a small amount of olive oil.
Bake for 25-30 minutes. Start checking it 20 minutes because it really depends on the amount of moisture in the leaves. Cheese will melt and begin to brown.
Some leaves may stick together. Just tear them and keep the cooled chips in an airtight bag until you are ready to enjoy!
