If your chard is thicker and tougher, you may need to bake for a bit longer. Just take them out when the leaves are slightly translucent and crisp.

Kale chips are all the rage, so I thought, why not chard chips? I have never once felt it necessary to shell out $7 for a very small, very light package of kale chips. And here’s why: they are stupidly easy to make, and greens from the farmer’s market don’t come in plastic boxes.
My chard was so tender that I didn’t need to remove the stems, but in most cases you will want to do that, and probably cut up the leaves into manageable sizes. Keep in mind that they will shrink a bit in the oven, though.
