What does Swiss Chard taste like?

I am trying to lose weight and need to get in my veggies, I don’t really like a lot of veggies and am getting bored with carrots, celery, cucumbers and tomatoes. I have thought about trying swiss chard, I saw some recipes for it, and the recipes sound yummy. My only concern is that the flavor of the swiss chard is going to be bad. I thought it seemed to be like beets when I smelled it one time at the grocery store, basically I just want to know if that was the veggie that tastes like beets?

Its hard to explain, But I think it has a nice flavor.
I take the swisschard and cut thee bottoms off, Then I clean it and cut it up. Meanwhile put about 2 Tablespoons of Olive oil in a pot cut up garlic. When the swisschard is all clean and ready. Start putting your cut up garlic in the hot oil, I put 2 cloves you can add as much as you like. when it has cooked for about 5Min’s.Take your wet swisschard and put that in, add about 1/4th cup of water or chicken stock and salt to taste. Put a cover on it and cook until soft maybe 20Min’s or more. When it is done and you put it in a bowl add grated Italian cheese and enjoy. If you don’t like vegetables try what we do with the kids, cook string beans after the are done add a little Italian dressing, it enhances the flavor and they love it. Try different veggies with dressing that you like. (low fat) You can also freeze any leftovers for another day.
