Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon olive oil 5g
- Bunch of Rainbow Chard mine weighed out to just over 200g
- 2 cloves of garlic minced
- 4-5 small turnips cut into small chunks
- ⅛ cup of almonds 15g
- ⅛ cup dried cherries halved 20g
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoon of water
Instructions
- Separate the leaves from the stems of the chard. Just gap the step and pull.
- Chop the stems into small pieces and loosely chop the leaves.
- Cut the turnips. I had these aging ones from last weeks share. (note: I already ate the greens but I'm thinking you could make this salad using the turnip greens instead of the chard.)
- Heat the oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chard stems, garlic and turnips. Sauté until the stems are soft and the turnips browning.Bunch of Rainbow Chard, 2 cloves of garlic minced, 4-5 small turnips cut into small chunks, 1 teaspoon olive oil
