Millet with Red Swiss Chard Leaves and Carrots

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 2 carrots, chopped
• 1 bunch red swiss chard leaves, chopped (use also the stems)
• 1 cup millet
• 2 cups vegetable stock (don''t put too much water, as the chard will leave its juice)
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 2 Tbl. olive oil

Directions:

In a medium pot, heat the olive oil. Saute the onion. Add the carrots and saute. Add the swiss chard. When the chard starts to leave some of its juice (after 1-2 min.), add the millet, the stock, the salt and the pepper. Bring to boil. As soon as it starts boiling, cover and cook for 10-15 min. Enjoy!

P.S. You can substitute the millet with quinoa. It''s really good.
