Chard Pasta

Chard Pasta

1 small onion
Around 1 bunch chard, cleaned, destemmed, and chopped
1/4 cup heavy cream
1/4 tsp freshly grated nutmeg
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
about a half box of pasta (shapes work better than spaghettilike stuff for this)
2 tbsp shaved parmesan

Saute the onion in a little butter, over medium heat, until soft (maybe 5 mins). Toss in the chard and cook until cooked and soft, about 15 more minutes.

While you cook the chard, heat up some water and salt it and boil the pasta. Once everything is happily cooked, combine the chard mixture and pasta in a pot and toss with the cream, red pepper, and nutmeg, and cook for a minute over medium heat. Mix in the parmesan and add salt and pepper to taste.

It may not be the healthiest thing but it is pretty tasty.
