A European Combo - Swiss Chard and Italian Peppers - Our Recipe of the Day- Oct 20th

---

---

Another Quick, Simple, Delicious, side dish. Swiss Chard is a member of the beetroot family. It has a stalk that is not too tough and sauté's well. It's leaves are reminiscent of spinach leaves but slightly hardier when cooked.

Italian peppers are in the bell pepper family but are longer and more narrow with a waxier skin. Known as Friggitelli, they are not spicy. Don't confuse them with their look alike cousin, the slightly spicy pepperoncini.
