Take one look at an artichoke and you might be intimated—how do you cut it, what can you make with it, and will my family actually eat it? These are often the questions that run through people's minds when it comes to artichoke recipes. But we're here to tell you: don't worry! Cooking with artichokes is actually much easier than you might think. First of all, you can always use jarred artichoke hearts that you store in your pantry, or even frozen artichokes when you're in a pinch. And come springtime, you'll see fresh artichokes popping up in your vegetable garden or at your local farmers' market.
So, what should you make with all those artichokes? These artichoke recipes, of course! Here, you'll find tons of picnic sides, appetizers, and hearty main courses—all made with artichokes. There's the classic roasted artichokes, stuffed artichoke hearts, and Ree Drummond's antipasti salad made with marinated artichokes. Of course, it wouldn’t be an artichoke roundup without mentioning everyone's favorite party dip: spinach-artichoke! Those two ingredients were just meant to be together. And we've got tons of variations on the duo, including spinach-artichoke calzones and creamy spinach artichoke chicken. We're telling you; these artichoke recipes are no arti-joke! 😂
