Sometimes I get stuck in a veggie-rut. Meaning I tend to grab the same carrots, cauliflower, kale and bell peppers every time I hit the store or market. As I said before in my post The Paleo Pantry, I recommend challenging yourself (and myself!) to pick a new veggie, something that you haven’t been in the habit of eating, once a week. Last week it was rainbow chard and I’m super happy with that decision.
I went for a classic Italian-style greens approach for this. Garlic, freshly grated nutmeg (yes, NUTMEG) and a bit of chopped hazelnuts are exactly what rainbow chard want to be partnered with — trust me, we’re very close now.
Remember, I feed my kids all of this food. This recipe got requests for seconds by my nine-year-old and my three-year-old nibbled a couple of bites without protest — in my house, that’s a victory!
