Kale and Rainbow Chard Taboule

This is a weekly favourite as its easy to make, packed with seasonal leafy greens and delicious! Homegrown veg can often grow pretty big if not kept on top of, but this finely chopped recipe is perfect for using slightly overgrown salad leaves. You can scale up the recipe for meal prep or for sharing at a summer bbq or picnic.
