I made this recipe up on the fly when I wanted to use up my potatoes and swiss chard from the local farmer's market. This made a perfect side and made a nice change to the normal mashed potatoes. Cucumber Chard Salad, a side, used up the swiss chard stems and goes well with this recipe. Ingredients:
1 bunch swiss chard leaf, torn up |
1 (5 lb) bag potatoes |
1 cup milk (or more) |
butter (optional) |
Directions:
1. Wash, skin (optional) and chop the potatoes.
2. Start boiling the potatoes.
3. Once the potatoes are halfway done add the swiss chard leaves. You can use more than a single bunch.
4. Once the potatoes and swiss chard is done drain the water out. You can keep the water for another use (ie. soup).
5. Mash the potatoes and swiss chard.
6. Add milk and butter (basically your normal mashed potatoes).
