Here, leaves of chard enclose a creamy filling to make an impressive first course. Yet you can assemble it a day (or even two) in advance, and steam it at the last minute. Do not substitute other greens for the chard; its distinctive flavor and texture define this dish.
Follow this with a simple second course, such as Roast Cornish Hens with Herb-Bread Stuffing or Sautéed Chicken with Prunes.
