Thursday, March 7, 2013 "SWISS CHARD" "If at first you don't succeed, redefine success!" ~ Author Unknown These plants were spotted and photographed in the front yard of the same home as the Dusty Millers in yesterday's photo. Thanks for your comments yesterday - and here's another shout out to Judy (aka fotoeffects) and Linda (aka Lgood) for identifying them:). "Swiss chard is not only one of the most popular vegetables along the Mediterranean, but it is one of the most nutritious vegetables around and ranks second only to spinach following our analysis of the total nutrient-richness of the World's Healthiest vegetables." ~ Reprinted text from here: http://www.whfoods.com/genpage.php?tname=foodspice&dbid=16 According to Better Homes and Garden, "If you're tired of the same old vegetable side dishes, grow Swiss chard. You'll find dozens of different ways to serve it. The classic preparation is to lightly saute; it in olive oil and garlic. But also use its greens raw in salads. Or sliver the leaves and stems and had several handfuls to a pot of soup. Swiss chard is an attractive plant, and the newer "rainbow" Swiss chards available are very striking -- and still taste great. You can even include them in a flowerbed! Although flavor is best in cool weather, chard tolerates the heat of summer quite well." Hang in there; tomorrow is Friday! ***#10 photo of the day*** (photo taken 1/25/2013)
