SWISS CHARD & POTATO SOUP
This soup comes from Lucy Waverman's St. Patrick's Day menu in the Globe and Mail (March 2009). Lucy Waverman notes "My grandmother used spinach to make this soup, but it tends not to have a strong enough taste for the potatoes; Swiss Chard matches much better." Cooking time includes puree time. It is also fine without the garnish. Serve with fresh buns or bread.

TUSCAN CHARD AND CANNELLINI BEAN SOUP
This is a hearty, wonderful soup that takes a very short time to make. If you have a rind from a piece of Parmiggiano Reggiano, add it to the broth as you cook; if you don't, you may want to add grated Parmesan cheese to the soup. This soup thickens as it stands (due to the pasta and cheese).

GARLICKY SWISS CHARD
There's really no secret to making excellent sautéed greens: just good olive oil, salt, loads of garlic and a jolt of red pepper flakes. This method works with pretty much any green too - broccoli, broccoli rabe, kale, spinach, collards, brussels sprouts or green beans - so you've really no excuse not to get your daily dose of vegetables. Serve it as a side to any roasted or grilled meat, or over a mound of creamy polenta that's been crowned with a fried egg.

SWISS CHARD AND RICE SOUP
In the late spring and early summer we are surrounded by great big bunches of chard with wide stems and lush leaves, tender leeks, the last of the fava beans, first of the green beans and the first of the summer squash, still small and delicate. In not a lot of time, you can do what the French do: make soup. Rice will bulk up the soup. Though a starchy medium-grain rice like Arborio works, this recipe uses white basmati, which swells to four times its original size when cooked. You could try using brown basmati rice, but the color of the soup will be duller. If you're looking for an easy way to reduce your calorie intake, these soups will help. They're filling and light, and make great low-calorie meals. This is a simple and comforting soup that is especially delicious in the spring, when Swiss chard is at its sweetest and most tender.

Steps:
- Trim the bottoms of the chard stems. If the stems are thin and fibrous, separate the leaves and discard the stems. If they are wide, separate the leaves and cut the stems into 1/4-inch dice. Set aside with the celery and onion. Wash the leaves in 2 changes of water and chop medium-fine.
- Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy soup pot and add the onion, celery and chard stalks. Cook, stirring often, until the vegetables begin to soften, about 3 minutes, and add a generous pinch of salt. Continue to cook, stirring often, until the vegetables are tender, another 3 minutes. Add the garlic and stir until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the stock or water, bouquet garni and rice. Bring to a boil, add salt to taste, reduce the heat, cover and simmer 10 minutes.
- Stir the chard into the soup, cover and simmer another 10 minutes. Add freshly ground pepper, taste and adjust the salt. Serve with fresh lemon wedges for people to squeeze into their servings if desired and Parmesan for sprinkling.
