When you think of "au gratin," chances are you're imagining a potato dish. And that makes sense! Usually, this French classic involves loads and loads of potatoes, cheese, and breadcrumbs. So, we've taken that model and recreated a lightened-up version, which led to this recipe for Swiss chard au gratin. You might be able to guess from the recipe title that we've swapped in Swiss chard instead of potatoes, so it will be less dense and more earthy! You also have several tasty options: Swap spinach for the chard, use paprika or Dijon mustard instead of nutmeg, or look for rainbow chard for a bright-colored, fun spin on this recipe.
