Normal salad greens - Instead of using mixed salad greens or regular lettuce for your salads
, try exchanging half of the greens for chopped Swiss chard. Or, instead of sauteing spinach for a vegetable side dish, try sauteing Swiss chard with some olive or coconut oil and minced garlic. Swiss chard has a remarkable amount of vitamin A, nearly your entire recommended daily intake with just one cup, as well as almost 700 times the recommended intake of vitamin K, essential for bone health. Swiss chard is only 35 calories per cooked cup, so it makes a delicious nutrient dense side dish or addition to soups, salads and stir-fry's without adding up the calories.
