Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add the garlic to the skillet and sauté for an additional minute until fragrant.
Stir in the Swiss chard and continue to cook until wilted and any excess moisture has evaporated. Season with salt and pepper, and let cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cooled chard mixture with eggs, lemon zest, parsley, and dill.
Grease a small loaf pan with olive oil. Press the chard mixture into the pan evenly.
In a separate bowl, mix the almond flour with a pinch of salt. Drizzle the remaining olive oil over the almond flour until it resembles coarse breadcrumbs.
Sprinkle the almond flour mixture generously over the chard terrine, pressing gently to adhere.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden and crisp.
Allow to cool slightly before slicing and serve with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of fresh herbs.
