- Blanch chard in a large pot of boiling salted water, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until tender but still bright green, about 5 minutes. Transfer chard with a slotted spoon to a large bowl of ice and cold water to stop cooking. Drain chard in a colander, then squeeze out excess water by handfuls. Coarsely chop chard.

BRAISED SWISS CHARD WITH RAISINS AND PINE NUTS
There are a few recipes that are similar to this recipe but not one exactly like this (this one packs a punch in flavor). I found it in a recipe book that one of Oprah Winfrey's trainers published. I put it in my own book and because I have an embarassingly huge number of cookbooks, I can't find the authors' name. The author noted that instead of the Swiss Chard, this recipe could be made with 2 packages of frozen spinach. That's how I make it because I always have frozen spinach on hand. If you use the frozen spinach, cook it according to package instructions, let it cool, then squeeze out as much of the remaining liquid as possible...I use a thin-mesh strainer to do it. It's so simple to prepare and make - it's hard to believe it's soo low fat. Hope you enjoy!

Steps:
- Tear Swiss Chard leaves into medium pieces.
- In large saute pan, heat olive oil over medium heat.
- Stir red onion in and saute for about 5 minutes or until the red onion slices are soft.
- Turn heat up to medium-high heat; add raisins and pine nuts, stir to toast the nuts.
- Add swiss chard, give it a couple of stirs to incorporate it with the other ingredients. If you are using the spinach, add it at this point instead of the Swiss Chard.
- Add water and cover the pan so the swiss chard will wilt. Usually takes about 3 to 4 minutes for this to happen. Even if you are using the spinach that you have cooked, cooled and strained of extra water - DON'T SKIP THIS STEP WITH YOUR PRE-COOKED, STRAINED SPINACH - if you skip this with your spinach, the texture will be "gummy." Trust me - I tried it.
- Put individual servings on plates, use salt and pepper to your taste and then, (my favorite part) - sprinkle with balsamic vinegar or red wine vinegar.
BABY SWISS CHARD WITH BACON, PINE NUTS AND RAISINS
I was reading in my latest cookbook: "Ad Hoc at Home" and came across Thomas Keller's recipe for Rainbow Chard with Raisins, Pine Nuts, and Serrano Ham. It sounded very tasty. I tried to simplify it a bit for my home use after making it as written. His is very, very good, but I also liked mine pretty well too.

Steps:
- In a small sauce pan heat the sherry until just simmering, add the raisins and remove from heat. Let soak for 20 minutes, until raisins are nice and plump.
- In a medium skillet, cook the bacon until crisp. Remove from skillet with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
- Toast the pine nuts in the bacon fat until golden brown. Remove from skillet with slotted spoon and add to bacon on paper towel.
- Heat 1 ½ tablespoons olive oil in large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the garlic, and gently sauté for 30 seconds, just to soften. Reduce heat to medium-low and add ¼ of the chard to the skillet, season lightly with salt and cook for 3 to 5 minutes to wilt. Add another ¼ of the chard to the skillet and continue to cook until all of the chard is wilted and tender, about 10 to 15 minutes.
- Remove the chard from the skillet to a bowl and cook the rest of the chard as above. If you have two large skillets you can do both batches at the same time.
- When all of the chard is cooked, return it to the skillet and add raisins, pine nuts and bacon. Cook over medium heat until warmed through and the raisins, pine nuts and bacon are evenly distributed in the chard. Season with more salt if needed and black pepper to taste.
- Serve.
- Note:.
- I found baby chard that had very tender stems. If the chard stems you have are large and tough, cut them out of the chard leaves and chopped them into 1 inch lengths. Blanch them in boiling water until tender, about 3 to 4 minutes, drain, then add them when cooking the leaves.

SWISS CHARD WITH CURRANTS AND PINE NUTS
This is a popular dish throughout the Mediterranean, particularly in Catalonia, Provence, and the Italian Riviera. It is often made with spinach, but I prefer to use Swiss chard, because the chard stands up to the cooking but still has a delicate flavor.

Steps:
- Place the raisins or currants in a bowl and pour on hot water to cover. Soak 10 minutes and drain.
- Fill a bowl with ice water. Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil and add the chard. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, until just tender. Transfer to the bowl of ice water and let sit for a few minutes. Drain and squeeze out as much water as you can. Chop coarsely.
- Heat the oil over medium heat in a large, heavy nonstick skillet. Add the chard stems and cook 3 to 5 minutes, until tender. Add the pine nuts and cook, stirring, until they begin to color, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, just until the garlic begins to smell fragrant about 1 minute. Add the chopped greens and raisins or currants and toss together until they are well coated with oil and heated through, 2 to 3 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper, and serve, or allow to cool and serve at room temperature.

- Separate the stems from the chard leaves. Trim the ends of the stems and slice them. Shred the leaves into relatively thin slices, cutting longer ones as needed, keeping them separate from the stems. Finely dice the onion and the garlic.
- Warm the olive oil in a medium skillet/frying pan over a medium heat. Add the chard stems, onion and garlic and cook for a couple minutes until they start to soften. Add the leaves and wilt them down, turning the mixture over so the warm stems and onion are on top to help the leaves wilt down. Reduce the heat if needed so the leaves don't burn.
- Add the raisins, pine nuts and lemon and cook another minute or two, reducing heat as needed, then serve.
