INSTRUCTIONS
Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add garlic and just ½ tsp red pepper flakes and cook until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Add chard and cook until stems are softened and leaves are wilted, 3 to 5 minutes. (TIP: Add more red pepper flakes if you prefer more spice.)
Stir lentils and rice into saucepan with cooked chard and cook over medium heat until warmed through, 2 to 3 minutes. Add lemon juice and season to taste with salt and pepper.
Whisk together vinegar, sugar, and a pinch of salt and pepper in small bowl. Add beets and toss to coat. Divide warm lentils and wild rice with chard between plates. Top with dressed beets and herb garlic cheese. Bon appétit!
