The most awesome what to do with Swiss Chard Recipe

Very few recipes I really invent - but this one is all my own craziness.

• 4 slices (or more) bacon, chopped
• 1 minced onion
• maple syrup (to taste - 2 TBS- ish)
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
• 1 t - T fresh garlic (I use more like a T, but I LOVE garlic)
• 1 bunch Swiss chard, stems removed (saved), shred or cut leaves into 1-inch pieces
• 
  

Directions

1. Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place the chopped bacon in the skillet and cook until the fat separates from the meat. Add the onion and cook until clear. Melt the butter in the skillet. Stir in the lemon juice and garlic paste. Add the stems first and let them wilt then add the Swiss chard to the butter mixture. When the leaves begin to wilt, place a cover on the skillet and increase heat to medium-high. Allow the chard to cook while covered for about 4 minutes. Stir the chard leaves to coat with the butter mixture. Season with brown sugar and drizzle with maple syrup.
2. Add over the top of pasta with alfredo sauce.
