8	large eggs

4	ounces ounces goat cheese, crumbled (soft type)

Instructions

• 1. Begin by washing the Swiss chard. Cut off the stems, dice them finely, and set aside.
  2. Next, chop the chard leaves.
  3. Heat 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil in a nonstick 9-inch skillet with an ovenproof handle. Add the thinly sliced onion, ¼ teaspoon of salt, and minced rosemary. Sauté for approximately 10 minutes over medium heat until the onions are very soft and just starting to caramelize.
  4. Add the chopped Swiss chard leaves and the remaining ¼ teaspoon of salt. Sauté for 1 to 2 minutes until the greens are just wilted. Remove from heat, then stir in the minced garlic and the finely diced Swiss chard stems. Set this mixture aside.
  5. In a bowl, whisk the eggs. Incorporate the Swiss chard mixture and crumbled goat cheese, stirring to combine.
  6. After washing and drying the skillet, return it to the stovetop.
  7. Preheat the oven's broiler.
  8. Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in the skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, pour in the vegetable-egg mixture and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, until the eggs are set on the bottom.
  9. Transfer the skillet to the preheated broiler and broil for about 3 minutes, until the frittata is firm and golden on top.
  10. Carefully loosen the frittata from the skillet and invert it onto a large round plate. Cut into wedges and delight in serving this flavorful dish.
