This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and herbs, and it was much better.

I had some trouble finding Swiss chard at my local grocery store. I ended up using spinach instead, and it turned out just fine.

This recipe is a bit too spicy for my taste, but I was able to tone it down by using less chili powder.
