Swiss Chard3 cloves minced Garlic
3 Tbs olive oil
1 onion, diced
2 cans stewed tomatoes
1 can kidney or canellini beans, rinsed and drained
1 bunch Swiss Chard, chopped

Heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and onions, and cook for about 8 minutes until onions are translucent. Add the Swiss Chard, and cook for a minute until the leaves begin to wilt. Add the tomatoes, cook for 1 minute and then reduce heat to medium. Stir in beans. Adjust heat again to maintain a simmer. Cook for an additional 10 minutes, just until the beans are heated through.
