Artichoke Recipes

Artichoke Hearts in Tomato Rice

Ingredients:

14 ounces of artichoke hearts, undrained

1 can of stewed tomatoes, undrained

1 to 2 cups of instant rice

1 small cup of water

3 sliced onions

Instructions:

Mix all ingredients in a pan. Bring to the boil, stirring frequently. Reduce heat, cover and let simmer for ten minutes or so until the rice is done.


Garlic and Artichoke Pizza

Ingredients:

1 unbaked pizza crust

3/4 cup spaghetti sauce

6 artichoke hearts

1 medium tomato, cut in half and sliced

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 pound grated cheese

Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Prepare the pizza crust according to package instructions. Place on a pizza pan.

Pour the liquid from the artichokes into a small skillet, and bring to a boil over medium heat. Cook for 1 minute, or until the liquid is almost gone. Add garlic, and cook, stirring, for less than a minute. Add artichoke hearts, stir to coat with garlic flavor, then remove from heat, and set aside.

Spread spaghetti sauce over the prepared pizza crust. Sprinkle with cheese, then place the artichoke hearts and garlic over the cheese. Arrange tomato slices evenly over the top.

Bake for 20 minutes in the preheated oven, until crust is puffed and golden, and cheese is melted.

Hot Artichoke Dip with Sun-Dried Tomatoes

Ingredients:

1 cup Parmesan cheese

1 cup mayonnaise

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 (14 ounce) can artichoke hearts, drained and excess juice squeezed out

2 tablespoons thinly sliced green onions

2 tablespoons chopped sun-dried tomatoes

1 teaspoon paprika

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease an 8x8-inch baking dish.

In a medium bowl, mix together the Parmesan cheese, mayonnaise, and garlic powder. Stir in the artichokes, green onions, and sun-dried tomatoes. Mix well, and transfer to the prepared baking dish.

Bake in a preheated oven until lightly browned, about 25 minutes. Sprinkle with paprika, and serve.
