Easy, fast and delicious! I had lots of organic swiss chard to use, and this recipe was a great find. Used regular bacon instead of pancetta but agree Italian sausage would be yummy, too. Smoked mozzarella gives a distinctive flavor, but would also be good with fresh cubed mozzarella. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

I love to cook, I love to eat, and it often shows on my waistline. Some of my meals come out great.... others..... well let’s just say I often use my boyfriend as a guinea pig. I love to watch the food network; Alton is my all time favorite. Followed closely by Gianda and Rachel Ray. I am a gadget whore and am always getting lost in the culinary store for hours. I love quick and simple dishes and grilling on the BBQ!!!!!!!!!!!!! And baking (though I am not very good at it. All in all I enjoy being in the kitchen even if it means I am cleaning it.
