Swiss Chard

Swiss chard, also known as silverbeet, is a leafy green vegetable belonging to the Beta vulgaris family. It is a member of the beet family and can be distinguished by its large, crinkly leaves that can be green, red, or yellow in colour. It is commonly used in Mediterranean cuisine.

The beautiful green leafy Swiss Chard is a nutritious vegetable that is low in calories and high in vitamins and minerals. It is a good source of vitamins K, A, and C, magnesium, potassium, and iron, and also a good source of dietary fibre and antioxidants.

Swiss chard can be eaten either raw or cooked. The leaves can be sautéed, steamed, or boiled, and the stems can be roasted or braised. It is often used as a substitute for spinach in many recipes, and it pairs well with garlic, lemon, and olive oil, making for a tasty and healthy meal.
