  • 1clove garlicminced
  • 1bunch Swiss chardsub kale or other strong leafy green
  • 1-2 eggsboiled
  • slices avocado
  • coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper

Instructions
  1. Cut the stems and most of the center ribs of the chard, discarding any tough portions. Next stack the chard leaves and roll into cylinders; cut crosswise to make about 1 inch wide strips. (You can also saute the ribs and stems if you want as well).
  2. Add 1 tbsp oil to a pan over medium heat. Add the garlic and let cook for about 1-3 mins. When the garlic is cooked, take out of the pan so it does not burn. Place on a small plate.
  3. Next add another 1 tbsp of oil to the pan for the chard. Place the chard in the pan; most likely in batches. Season with salt and pepper. Then add 1-3 tbs of water here too to help the process. Let wilt down then add the next batch. Cook until tender about 6-10 minutes.
  4. While the chard is cooking, boil 1-2 eggs in boiling water for about 6-8 mins.
  5. Once the chard is well sauteed and crisped up – add the garlic back in the pan and stir well.
  6. Plate the chard, add the warmed cooked hard or soft boiled egg right on top, add a few slices of a ripe avocado, more salt + pepper to taste, and last, add a hit or two of Sriracha or hot sauce.
