- 1 lb swiss chard leaf

- 3 large eggs

directions
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Prepare the : Combine the flour and 1/4 tsp salt in a medium-size bowl. Stir in 1/4 cup water and then oil, mixing until completely blended. Knead briefly. The dough will be very moist, much like a cookie dough. Press the dough into a 10 1/2-inch loose-bottomed metal tart tin.
- Prepare the filling: Wash and dry the green leafy portion of the swiss chard, discarded the white center stem. Break up the leaves and coarsely chop them, in several batches, in a food processer.
- Place the chard in a large shallow skillet and season with salt and pepper to taste. Over low heat wilt the chard and cook until most of the liquid has evaporated.
- Combine the eggs and the cheese in a medium bowl; mix until completely blended. Stir in the chard and mix well. Pour the mixture into the prepared pastry shell.
- Bake until the crust is golden and the chard mixture is firm and browned, about 40 minutes. Serve at room temperature.
