I love artichokes! I normally steam them. You don't eat the whole leaf, just scrape the fleashy part with your teeth. Often they are served with mayonasie for dipping, but that's not necessary... Or I bet some kind of low calorie mustard would be yummy. They have lots of fiber. The heart is the best part, when you've finished the outside leaves, scoop out the thisle parts and slice up the center flesh. So yummy!
Enjoy!
Can you believe I still haven't made them! I am a little intimidated I think. But this weekend!!!!
Thanks for your ideas!!
