I wasn't originally going to post this b/c the recipe is very simple and by no means ground breaking. It was just so tasty, though, that I felt I ought to share it!
Boil water and add salt and whole wheat pasta (I used penne, but I bet soba noodles would taste good, too).
Saute 1/2 onion (chopt), 1 lg clove garlic (sliced), 1 veggie chorizo sausage (sliced) in EVOO. When the sausage is browned and the onions are soft, add a bunch of chopt chard. When the chard has cooked down some, add 1/2 can chopt tomatoes and some balsamic vinegar. Season with oregano, rosemary, basil, and red pepper flakes (I added dried oregano and rosemary to the pan and put chiffonaded basil on top of the completed dish). Allow the sauce to simmer while the pasta cooks. This was >10 min for me. I initially wanted the sauce to be relatively raw, with barely softened onions and nearly fresh chard, but I think the long simmering time allowed the flavors to mature and mingle.
Top with crumbled feta cheese. Possibly for the first time in my life, I do not recommend hot sauce. Eat while watching TV alone and then promptly fall asleep.

Of course you should post this! What brand of chorizo are you using?
I forget the name of the brand, but they're the same folks who made the italian sausage I liked (smartfoods?). Superfresh hasn't been stocking it lately =(
