Red Chard Enchaladas Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Heat a large sauté/frying pan to a medium temperature.
  • Dice the onion and sauté to softens, (about 2 minutes) then add the minced garlic, watching carefully not to allow it to burn.
  • Rinse the chard well and trim ends and remove stems. Finely chop the stems to 1/2" lengths and add them to the onions. Add 1/2 cup of the water to help to steam it. (Add more if it evaporates, making sure the stems just stay moist.)
  • While the stems are becoming tender, rinse the beans and add to the pan.
  • Chiffonade the chard leaves and sprinkle over the salt and spices.
  • Toss in the chard leaves, adding the remaining water, keeping the mixture just moist.
  • Taste to adjust seasoning and remove everything from the heat once the chard stems are soft and the leaves are tender.
  • In a long oven proof dish, spread half of the tomatoes.
  • Shred the cheese and build the enchiladas starting with the flat bread.
  • Spoon about 2-3 tablespoons across the center, sprinkle lightly with the cheese and roll the opposite ends together.
  • Repeat until everything is folded and rolled.
  • Cover the enchiladas with the remaining tomato sauce, dot each one with sour cream and an olive.
  • Sprinkle the last of the cheddar and bake at 400 degrees for about 15 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
  • Serve with an extra dollop of sour cream, if desired.

    Chard is a leaf vegetable related to beets but very much resembles a cross between spinach, for the leaves, and rhubarb for the edible stalks. It grows in many colours from pale green, like bok choi to a rainbow variety. It may be eaten cooked or raw and is very high in vitamins K, A and C.
