Artichokes Recipes

This is my take on a vegan pizza I had at the Crooked Rooster Pub in New York. Who said you need cheese on pizza?

5 minutes to an easy appetizer or snack! All you need is a microwave and ziploc bag to a tasty treat using artichokes.

Taken from Good Housekeeping.
3 -4 WW points per serving.

This was GOOOOOOOOOD!

A lower fat version of a favorite dip. Serving size is 1/4 cup! From the website eatbetteramerica.com.

Native to northern Italy, this captivating and versatile entrée looks as good as it tastes. Hearty wild mushrooms and delicate artichoke hearts combine with savory Asiago cheese in this classic polenta dish. Makes a complete vegetarian meal when served with steamed beets and dark leafy greens.

These are great as a side dish or a light meal - serve with chicken or fish. Packed with vitamins and worth the extra prep with fresh artichokes.

We used to love the spring when the artichokes came in. This is a whole meal in itself. The kids used to fight over the 'heart'. Even the stem is tasty!
