It isn't as mild as chard, so the dish would be really hearty.Tonihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10928994510847141788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17271032.post-34849140099185117992007-05-23T14:05:00.000-05:002007-05-23T14:05:00.000-05:00i never get polenta quite right, but i keep gettin...i never get polenta quite right, but i keep getting urges to try again. <BR/><BR/>would your husband agree that maybe kale and swiss chard are interchangeable enough to be substituted in this dish?<BR/><BR/>if you're ever been to the chicago diner on halsted, they have a good polenta dish with swiss chard. <BR/><BR/>-- anne, menuism.com internannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06381536744449067639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17271032.post-79210433452812948112007-05-03T18:23:00.000-05:002007-05-03T18:23:00.000-05:00Ha ha!

He stubbornly called it kale, although he knows it isn't kale. And what's wrong with kale anyway?!<BR/>But following the technique I learned with my toddler, I just kept feeding it to him until he eventually accepted it as a food. <BR/><BR/>And the bacon in the freezer - life changing.Tonihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10928994510847141788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17271032.post-25401444700768311012007-05-01T09:13:00.000-05:002007-05-01T09:13:00.000-05:00I freeze slices of bacon between foil.

I like swiss chard - I think I might try this sometime.Sherihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04823897102038094722noreply@blogger.com
