The long-stemmed chard leaves are rich in minerals, including magnesium, potassium and iron, and cell-protecting vitamins including vitamins A, C and E.

Two tablespoons of pine nuts, roasted golden brown in a coated pan without fat, spice up this dish with tons of flavor and heart-healthy fatty acids. Sprinkle over the dish before serving.

Preparation

Preparation steps

1.

Rinse chard, spin dry and trim tough stems (reserve the stems for another use).

2.

Blanch chard leaves in a pot of boiling salted water for 2 minutes. Drain well, then spread chard in a baking dish. 

3.

Rinse and drain tomatoes and cut in half. Cut goat cheese into cubes and distribute both over the chard.

4.

Rinse thyme, shake dry and pluck the leaves.

5.

Sprinkle thyme over the chard and drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Bake in preheated oven at 160°C (fan 150°C, gas: mark 1) (approximately 325°F) until the cheese begins to melt, about 10 minutes.

6.

Meanwhile, squeeze lemon half. Mix 1 tablespoon lemon juice with honey and remaining oil. Drizzle over the vegetables. Season with salt and pepper. Serve with baguette.
