4 medium cucumbers (sliced, or whichever form is best for you)
1 -2 bunch swiss chard, stems chopped
1/4 - 1/2 bunch swiss chard leaf, torn up (optional)
1 cup water (can be taken from potato water, see note)
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar (or to taste)
1 tablespoon lemon juice (or to taste)
1 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
2 teaspoons pepper (or to taste)

Add the balsamic vinegar, cucumber, and swiss chard stems to a pot or frying pan with lid. Cook, while stirring, until all the vegetables are coated with the balsamic vinegar and are heated through.
Add the water and lemon juice, bring to a boil and simmer until the stems are halfway done.
Add the swiss chard leaves.
Add the salt and peper, to taste, and continue simmering until done.
