Swiss Chard? Cabbage? Weed?

Hi there !
First sping at our new home and we are excited to see all the blooms popping up in our garden. :)
Does anyone have a clue what is growing in the picture attached? I thought it was chard, but I haven't found anything to match it's budding stage in my research .... balls up like a cabbage then opens up, but the stalks are reddish in color.
Thanks so much!
Jessica
