Recipe by: Produce Pete's "Farmacopeia" - ISBN 0-688-12847-5 Preheat oven to 350 F. In a skillet, melt the butter, add the onion, and saute until lightly browned. In a large bowl, mix the sauteed onion, Swiss chard, ground beef, 1 cup grated cheese, eggs, and bread crumbs. Take a small handful of the mixture and form into sausage-like rolls about 3 inches long. Place some flour in a dish and roll each malfotte in flour until well coated. Bring a large saucepan half full of water to a boil. Place the malfottes into the pan and boil until they float to the top, about 5 to 7 mins. Remove them with a slotted spoon and drain. Cover the bottom of a baking pan with tomato sauce and place the malfottes in the pan in a single layer. Cover with sauce and sprinkle with the reamining Parmesan cheese.

Bake for about 20 to 30 mins.
