Directions: |
Directions:Wash swiss chard thoroughly Cut off ends and discard Cut the remaining stalks and leaves into 1-2 inch pieces .....to make it easier roll the leaves around the stalk for easier cutting Cook the swiss chard as you would cook spinach, bring water to a boil than add the swiss chard .....Put the stalks in boiling water first, they take longer to cook, than a few minutes later add the leaves Drain thoroughly and divide into two portions Lightly grease the pot Layer the bottom of the pot lightly with 1/3 of the tomato sauce. Place one portion of the swiss chard into the pot Spoon one can of the plum tomatos over the swiss chard Pour 1/3 can of tomato sauce over the plum tomatoes Layer swiss cheese chunks on top of tomatoes Layer browned breadcrumbs Repeat layers to top of pot Bake at 350º for 45-60 minutes or until cheese is melted and sides of pot are boiling Serve with crusty bread |

Notes: My Mom, Patricia, used to make this casserole all the time. My Dad, Gleb, continues the tradition. The breadcrumbs and swiss cheese are required!
