Stuffed Artichokes

 

You can't go wrong with stuffed artichokes! Cooking these brought me back to my Grandma's kitchen in the 80s. I love how smells can do that to you. 

Artichokes
1 - 2 cups bread crumbs
2 Tablespoons olive oil
3 cloves garlic; chopped


Take the artichokes and cut off the stems and top of the leaves.  Then spread the leaves and run water in them and place upside down on a plate to drain.  Then mix bread crumbs, olive oil and chopped garlic together. Spread the leaves and fill with bread crumbs. Put in a pan with water to about half way up the artichoke and simmer with a lid on for 1 1/2 to 2 hours. You will know they are done with the leaves come off easily. Enjoy!
