Lentils with Swiss Chard

Posted by:  

This Syrian dish makes a great side dish, especially with Salmon (try the Roasted Salmon & Onions). Note: I couldn't find pomegranate molasses so I substituted pomegranate juice mixed with honey. I'm anxious for someone to let me know how different this dish would be with the molasses.
