Chard Chips aka "Kale Chips" made with Swiss chard.
Per discussion today at the Wednesday harvest here is the recipe for "chard chips." Lightly toss chard in olive oil. Arrange in pan so they don't overlap and sprinkle with sea salt . Bake at 400 degrees for about 10 minutes. You want them out before the edges start to turn brown. Your "chips" will be light and crispy with an earthy flavor. They don't stand up to dip but they will melt in your mouth. If you "google" kale chips you will find all kinds of variations but since we were wondering what they would be like using Swiss chard, I thought I'd give it a try. Personally I prefer the kale, but this was still tasty in an earthier sort of way.

Below is the Garlic Scape Risotto from the previous post. I used ALL of my scapes in it and it is a bit garlic-y but less intense than in a pesto. I will probably serve it with a cucumber yogurt salad to "cool" it off.
