Swiss Chard and Pinto Bean Enchilada Filling

  Sorry for the weird lighting. The swiss chard in the garden has been reseeding itself and spreading into a swiss chard forest. So, swiss chard in all the things! I put this together from a combination of different recipes, and it's delicious. We used it in enchiladas, but it would also be good in a burrito or spread thin in a quesadilla. The Recipe: 1 large onion, chopped 1 bunch swiss chard, chopped with stems and leaves separated 3 cloves garlic, minced 15 oz cooked pinto beans 1 tb chili powder 2 tsp cumin salt to taste In a large skillet over medium-high heat, saute the onions and chard stems until softened and slightly browned.  Salt to taste Add garlic and saute 1 minute Add chard leaves and saute until wilted Add remaining ingredients and salt to taste The Verdict: Overall grade: A Overall reason: Healthy and delicious! Time to prepare: 15 minutes Husband quote: [I asked him how he liked the filling...] "It's so filling!"
