Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a Dutch oven over medium-low heat.

it is soft and fragrant. Add the tomatoes, and stir the ingredients well.
Simmer the tomatoes, stirring them often, for 15 minutes. Season the
tomatoes with salt and pepper.
While the tomatoes are cooking, prepare the chard. Heat 1 tablespoon of the
olive oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat, Add the remaining chopped
garlic, and saute it, stirring constantly, until it is soft and fragrant.
Add the chard stems, and saute them, stirring them constantly for 3
minutes. Add the chard leaves, and saute them, stirring often, for 2
minutes. Cover the pot, and steam the chard until it is tender,
approximately 5 minutes. Season the chard with salt and pepper.
Brush the bread slices with olive oil, and run them with the two whole
cloves of garlic. Broil or grill the bread until it is golden. Remove the
slices, and spread them lightly with the goat cheese. Tops the bread with,
first, the tomatoes and then the chard.
