Bake/Cook time: 0:55:00 Calories: 206
Fat: 15 grams
Protein: 12 grams
Carbohydrates: 5 grams
Fiber: 1 grams
Net Carbs: 4 grams
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 large bunches Swiss chard, washed, ribs removed,
roughly chopped
1 red bell pepper, chopped
1 small onion, chopped
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 1/2 cups grated muenster cheese (about 6 ounces)
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1. Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9" x 13" baking
dish. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large Dutch oven or pot
over high heat. Add chard and cook 3-4 minutes, until
wilted. Drain in colander; press with the back of a spoon
to extract excess liquid.
2. Heat remaining tablespoon oil in a large skillet over
medium heat. Cook bell pepper and onion 8 minutes,
until softened. Mix in chard; toss to coat. Season with
salt and pepper. Mix in muenster cheese. Spoon into
prepared baking dish.
3. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over top in an even layer.
Cover with foil; bake 30 minutes. Uncover, and cook 10
minutes more, until cheese is brown and bubbly.
Raw chard is very bulky, but it wilts tremendously when cooked.
You can substitute frozen chard for fresh in this recipe (three 10-
ounce packages, thawed, squeezed dry and chopped). Atkins - Chard and Cheese Casserole
