Pritikin Roasted Tomatoes and Chard Recipe

The Pritikin Eating Plan recommends and incorporates the healthiest animal food choices — omega-3-rich fish, lean protein like chicken and turkey, and vibrant flavors with fruit and vegetables, making the most of spices and bold flavors. This popular Roasted Tomatoes and Chard side dish is delicious served as a side-dish for dinner, or can be a hearty vegetarian entree as well. Best of all — it makes those tepid, not-very-interesting grocery store tomatoes MUCH tastier, and, if you happen to have home-grown tomatoes?  So much the better!  You can’t lose with this one.
