This recipe is great way to slip veggies in your diet. My teen sons love it as well as my husband. They say you eat with your eyes first. The more color the better. Spring is a great time for rainbow Swiss chard (pronounced shard)
Swiss Chard Chicken Tacos
2 cups cooked or grilled chicken breasts, cut up
1 red or orange bell pepper, diced
1 small vidalia onion , diced
1 large bunch of rainbow swiss chard
Taco sauce-like Ortega
sour cream
1 cup colby jack, shredded
Soft tortillas , wrapped in foil and warmed in the oven per package directions- usually 350 degrees for 8-10 min.
Cut the leaves off the washed chard and shred. Cut the stems of the chard fine. Add olive oil to a skillet. Saute the chopped stems, onions and bell peppers. And the chicken and the chard leaves. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add the taco sauce to your taste - I start with 1/4 cup. Mix well. Scoop onto tortillas and add sour cream,cheese and additional sauce to individuals tastes. I made a large batch of this and the guys were politely trying to divide the last bits. No leftovers- family full of chard...it's a good thing!
