Using your bounty
I participate in a co-op group called Bountiful Baskets where every 2 weeks I order and receive a basket full of fresh fruits and vegetables. Sometimes, I receive interesting items that I have never cooked with before. As you should know by now, I am ALWAYS up for a challenge. The particular item this week that was new for me was artichokes. Now, I like this flavor. I like it on Papa Murphy's pizza (I know, I know) and I love them in Spinach and Artichoke dip. I have never made this other than the packages you can buy that contain about a million calories and even more grams of fat. So...I took to the handy dandy internet to see if I could find one that I could actually eat. There are very few that actually use fresh artichokes (perhaps due to the work involved to get to the heart). I did find one though so I will try it and let you know. If you want to try it in the meantime, you can get the recipe here! My next basket arrives on Saturday - can't wait to see what's in that one!
