I'm not a big fan of chard, but this recipe was actually pretty good. The chard was cooked perfectly, and the almonds added a nice flavor.

Not bad. I thought this recipe was just okay. The chard was a bit bland, and the almonds didn't add much flavor. I probably won't make this again.

This recipe was a disaster! The chard was overcooked and mushy, and the almonds were burnt. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong. I won't be making this again.

Meh. I thought this recipe was just okay. The chard was a bit too bitter for my taste, and the almonds didn't add much flavor. I probably won't make this again.
