Preparation

Rinse Swiss chard. Place in large pot with just the water clinging to leaves; cover and cook over medium-high heat, stirring, until wilted, 2 minutes. Drain in sieve; squeeze out liquid, reserving about 1/4 cup (60 mL).

In food processor, purée together Swiss chard and reserved liquid, all but 1 cup (250 mL) of the artichoke hearts, beans, ricotta, sour cream, all but 1/4 cup (60 mL) of the Parmesan cheese, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, salt and pepper until almost smooth. Transfer to bowl; stir in remaining artichokes.

Scrape into 4-cup (1 L) ovenproof dish; sprinkle with remaining Parmesan. Bake in 350°F (180°C) oven until browned and bubbly, about 35 minutes.
