TUSCAN CHARD AND CANNELLINI BEAN SOUP
This is a hearty, wonderful soup that takes a very short time to make. If you have a rind from a piece of Parmiggiano Reggiano, add it to the broth as you cook; if you don't, you may want to add grated Parmesan cheese to the soup. This soup thickens as it stands (due to the pasta and cheese).

Steps:
- In a large saucepan over medium heat, cook the bacon, onion, garlic, nutmeg, and red pepper flakes until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Pour in chicken broth and cannellini beans, and bring the mixture to a boil; stir in sun-dried tomatoes and the piece of Parmesan cheese rind. Reduce heat to a simmer, and cook while you prepare the chard, about 10 minutes.
- Cut the stems from the chard, and slice the stems into pieces about 3/4-inch long. Cut the chard leaves into 1-inch wide ribbons. Stir the chard stems and pasta into the soup, setting aside the leaves. Reduce heat to a simmer, and gently simmer until the pasta is tender, about 10 minutes. Stir the chard leaves, sage, and basil into the soup, and simmer just until wilted, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Ladle soup into bowls and top with Parmesan cheese and a drizzle of olive oil, if desired.

TUNISIAN SOUP WITH CHARD AND EGG NOODLES
I found this at epicurious who got it from gourmet. The North African hot sauce called harissa lends this soup its beautiful brick-red color, as well as a deep, spicy warmth that isn't the least bit aggressive. For a supper that's both robust and rejuvenating, chard, chickpeas, and noodles go into the pot, too.

Steps:
- Toast cumin in a dry small heavy skillet (preferably cast-iron) over medium heat, stirring, until deeply fragrant and dark brown (be careful not to burn). Cool, then grind to a powder in grinder.
- Cook chard stems, onion, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon each of cumin and salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in oil in a large heavy pot over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until beginning to brown, about 10 minutes. Add tomato paste and cook, stirring, 2 minutes. Add stock, harissa, and lemon juice and simmer, covered, 15 minutes.
- Add chard leaves, chickpeas, and noodles with 1/2 teaspoon salt and simmer, covered, until tender, about 5 minutes.
- Serve soup sprinkled with remaining cumin.
- note:.
- Soup, without noodles, can be made 3 days ahead and chilled (covered once cool). Bring to a simmer and cook noodles in soup before serving.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh Swiss chard. If you can't find Swiss chard, you can substitute another leafy green, such as spinach or kale.
- To make the egg noodles from scratch, you can use a pasta maker or a rolling pin and sharp knife. If you don't have time to make your own noodles, you can use store-bought egg noodles.
- The soup can be made ahead of time and reheated when you're ready to serve. It's also a great soup to freeze for later.
- Serve the soup with a side of crusty bread or crackers for dipping.
Conclusion:
This Tunisian soup with chard and egg noodles is a delicious and hearty soup that's perfect for a winter meal. It's also a great way to use up leftover ham or chicken. The soup is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a warm and comforting soup, give this Tunisian soup a try.
