Red Chard and Caramelized Onions image

This dish is good hot or at room temperature. I serve it as a side when the kids want mac and cheese for dinner. They do not eat it, but it makes me feel grown-up. It is very tasty.

This dish was a hit with my family! The caramelized onions added a delicious sweetness that balanced out the bitterness of the red chard. I will definitely be making this again.
