Ingredients

  • 1 bunch chard
  • 4 teaspoons olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons maple syrup
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1 cup diced cucumber
  • 1 small beet
  • 1/4 cup golden raisins
  • 1/4 cup toasted sunflower seeds

Instructions

  • The chard stems can be removed and placed back in the refrigerator to be used for further hot dog stir-fries. The chard leaves should be piled and rolled into a tight cylinder. To create long chard ribbons, slice the cylinder into 14"-thick segments. It's referred to as a chiffonade!
  • Chard should be placed in a sizable basin with oil, vinegar, lemon juice, maple syrup, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat.
  • Toss after adding everything else.
  • To get the chard leaves softened, let it sit for 15 to 30 minutes, or however long it takes you to take a freaking shower. Be the healthiest person you know by eating it.
