Swiss Chard Sweet Potato Quesadilla : page 100
Sweet potatoes cooked with onion, garlic, and spices - thats great. Now pair it with chopped up Swiss chard, and its approaching nirvana. We also added some sharp cheddar cheese.
12 daughter dislikes Swiss chard, but loved this! A great way to consume those leafy greens.
I found I could really pack in a lot of chard -- I sliced it up into slivers (across the leaf), and piled it an inch deep inside the tortilla. Cooking it caused the chard to wilt a bit - making it easy to eat - not wet, and still a bit crunchy. Do dry it well, though, before cutting.
I slipped when adding the chili powder, and was surprised at how good it tasted.
Note page number here is inaccurate, please help me cookbookers - I found it mentioned but no recipe in the book itself.
