Cheesy spring chard cannelloni

Cheesy spring chard cannelloni

You can’t beat the comfort of baked pasta and here, I’m celebrating the delicious iron-y punch of spring chard as a filling. It contrasts beautifully with the sweet lightness of the tomato base and the creamy ooze of the cheesy topping. It’s springtime in a dish, and might just succeed in putting a bit of spring in your step!
