Preparation
Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 11x7-inch (2-quart) glass baking dish with cooking spray. Remove stems and ribs of Swiss chard; chop. Coarsely chop leaves; set aside.
In 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Cook onion in oil 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until tender. Add garlic; cook 30 seconds or until lightly browned. Stir in chopped Swiss chard stems and ribs; cook 2 minutes. Add water. Cover; cook 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until chard begins to soften. Add chopped Swiss chard leaves. Cover; cook 4 to 6 minutes longer or until leaves are wilted and tender. Drain well.
In large bowl, mix cream cheese, garlic-and-herbs cheese, goat cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, 1 1/2 cups of the Parmesan cheese, the salt and pepper until smooth. Gently stir in Swiss chard mixture. Spoon into baking dish. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese.
Bake uncovered 25 to 30 minutes or until bubbly. Serve warm with pita chips.
