CHARD, SQUASH AND TOMATOES
Steps:
- Combine one 14-ounce can no-salt-added diced tomatoes, 2 sliced garlic cloves, 2 sprigs thyme, 2 tablespoons olive oil and a pinch of red pepper flakes in a large microwave-safe bowl; add 2 cups cubed peeled butternut squash. Cover with plastic wrap and pierce the plastic; microwave until the squash is tender, about 15 minutes. Add 1 bunch chopped Swiss chard (stems removed) and toss. Cover and microwave 5 more minutes. Top with crumbled pecorino.
CHEESY STOVE-TOP BARLEY AND SWISS CHARD
When barley is prepared risotto-style, it comes out just as creamy as the original but with lots more filling fiber. Here, we add handfuls of sliced Swiss chard and shiitake mushrooms for an extra boost of nutrients. And because healthy food can be delicious too, a little cheese for creaminess and diced tomatoes for brightness make this a well-rounded meal for fall and winter.

- Heat oil in a large straight-sided skillet or braiser over medium-high. Add mushrooms and chard stems; season with salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms are tender and golden, 5 to 6 minutes. Stir in garlic; cook 30 seconds. Add barley and cook, stirring, until toasted, about 1 minute.
