I take all the stem out of the chard and it is a white variety. So no I really can't at least until it is unfrozen a bit. I put them in the same bag too. I won't do that again. Well at least I hope I won't.

I did the mistaken baggie thing as well this year - I planned to put a bunch of frozen shredded collard greens into a soup but ended up using a bag of cilantro instead. This year I WILL be a better labeler!Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15949946977793864054noreply@blogger.com
