Not only are they healthy, but they stretch out the food budget by getting an extra dish out of the chard. Plus, the pretty colors are likely to appeal to kids who would rather not eat vegetables.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10950366.post-42869476400411103732008-11-24T06:25:00.000-08:002008-11-24T06:25:00.000-08:00Sounds interesting.
