  1. I'm afraid the combination of tastes didn't appeal to me. But it's very pretty. :-)
     
  2. Absolutely wonderful!!!! This is a very well-balanced dish!! I love the slight sweetness of the currants with the distinctive flavor of chard and the tangy flavor of the feta cheese!! This dish is beautiful too, especially if you use rainbow chard. I will definitely make this again and again and it is perfect to serve guests!! Thanks so much for this great recipe!
