Cold Sesame Swiss Chard Leaves

Swiss chard (sometimes just called 'chard') is a great subtitute for those who are weary of spinach. With just 35 calories it has over 3 generous grams of fibre per cup when cooked. Look for a bunch with crisp leaves at the grocery store – once home the only prep that's left is to rinse any remaining grit or sand from the leaves.

Chop and add to salads, soups, pasta and vegetable dishes for an extra boost of iron and vitamins C, E and K.
