Prep Time: 5 mins

Ingredients

  • 1 large bunch Swiss chard, stems chopped, leaves chopped in strips 1 inch wide
  • 1/4 large red onion, chopped
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 pinches red pepper flakes (more if you want extra heat)

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a sauté pan over medium-high heat.
  2. Add onion and red pepper flakes. Cook until onion begins to soften and turn translucent, about 3 minutes.
