Healthy Ham Hocks-n-Greens

This “Southern-style” recipe was created by Portland’s own Betsy Davenport, a regular and more than welcome contributor to the recipe section of this blog.

You’ll never miss the hush puppies!  🙂

You’ll need:

• US Wellness Meats brand beef bacon, cooked and chopped into bits

• Swiss Chard, washed in cold water, barely shaken off – Cut into 2″ pieces, more or less

In frying sauté pan, heat up bacon fat

Put bacon pieces in, til warm

Add chard and stir around til more than wilted (note: chard is tougher than spinach and needs more cooking to be delicious)

Spoon onto plates

Garnish with fresh grated Romano cheese (can also use parmesan, goat cheese, feta – anything hard)
