We had one of those big bottles of Costco artichoke hearts in the fridge and I was looking at allrecipes.com for recipes with artichokes in them. I found and made this for lunch on Sunday. I made it quite different than the original recipe which is HERE because I just didn't have the right ingredients on hand.
From the kitchen of: Kim (nobody else would change an original recipe this much right out of the gate)
1 (6.5 ounce) jar marinated artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
1/2 cup grated cheese (It calls for Ramano but I put in fetta, colby, parmesian, whatever combo)
1/3 cup finely chopped red onion (I didn't have red, so I used standard yellow)
5 tablespoons mayonnaise
Slices of Tuscan bread (or any bread with a little Rosemary on it if you don't have Tuscan bread)
A few chopped olives
Preheat the broiler.
In a medium bowl, mix marinated artichoke hearts, cheese, onion and mayonnaise.
Toast the bread in a toaster to make it a little crispy and warm.
Top bread slices with the artichoke heart mixture.
Arrange slices on a baking sheet.
Broil until toppings are bubbly and lightly browned. (about 2-3 min?)
Garnish with weeds like the picture if you care about presentation (I didn't/don't)
Marilyn gave it an 8 out of 10 after she had snarfed it. [Update: we just had it again and she upped it to 9 out of a 10]
