I love chard and had bunch in my garden last year. I would saute as you did or put in pasta, soups, quiches, or with beans. You cannot, however, dehydrate to make chard chips like you can with kale. Tried it and didn't work.

ETA - I'd also saute and top with poached eggs, and good balsamic and olive oil, and s&p. That was really good.
