Swiss chard and egg noodles

4 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 bunch (1 1/2 lb.) swiss chard, stems discarded, leaves chopped
¾ pounds Broad egg noodles
6 Cloves garlic
12 Basil leaves
Small handful flat-leaf parsley
⅓ cup Olive oil plus more for the table
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
¼ cup Freshly grated parmesan

Directions

Bring a medium pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add swiss chard, lower heat and simmer for about 8 minutes, until tender. Drain and set aside.

Bring another pot of salted water to a boil and cook noodles until tender according to package instructions. Drain.

While noodles cook, finely chop garlic, basil and parsley in a food processor.

Heat olive oil in a heavy table-going casserole or skillet. Add garlic mixture. Saute gently for 30 seconds, stirring.

Add swiss chard noodles and salt and pepper to taste, tossing well to mix.

Serve at once, with extra olive oil and parmesan. Yields: 4 to 5 servings.
