Ingredients: Butter / Cream / Swiss Chard

My mother is pretty awesome.  The kids love her, and she loves swiss chard. When she comes by to hang out with the boys so I can get my boring grown-up things done, I can say “thank you” with a heaping helping of Swiss Chard Ribs with Egg Noodles and Cream Sauce, which is her favorite adaptation of this recipe (on Simply Recipes, originally from The Victory Garden Cookbook) .  I opt to leave the leaves in with the stems, adding them to the pasta noodles for a quick blanch during the last few minutes of the boil.

I much prefer the white cream cheese frosting to the overpowering chocolate in this one, but to each his own. These are a fun way to watch your summer zucchini surplus disappear!
