If all vegetables were covered in bread crumbs and cheese, I would surely eat them.
Like the rest of veggies, I want nothing to do with artichoke hearts unless they have the proper seasoning or are floating in a big bowl of oooey, gooey cheese.
I sometimes do enjoy the flavor of them on their own, at least for a few bites. Maybe it’s the texture that throws me off?
My most favorite way to eat artichokes is by stuffing them, but these come in at a close second.
They make a great side dish, or even a meal in my case. Once I start eating them I can’t stop, so there is rarely room for anything else.
Except bacon. You know there is always room for bacon.
Parmesan Baked Artichokes
1 14oz can artichokes in water, drained
1/4 cup panko bread crumbs
1/4 cup parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon italian seasoning
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 oz freshly shaved parmesan
Preheat oven to 375.
Layer artichokes in a baking dish. Drizzle olive oil on top. Season with salt, garlic and italian seasoning. Add bread crumbs and 1/4 cup parmesan on top. Bake for 15 minutes.
Remove artichokes from oven and turn on broiler. Top with shaved parmesan and broil for 1-2 minutes, or until cheese is golden brown.
I don’t think you can ever go wrong by covering something cheese. Am I right or am I right?

hahaha, your approach to veggies is hilarious.
I LOVE artichokes and was even craving them last night! I should have made something like this. I’m sure my husband would like it even though he’s not a huge fan of them.

if jessica the veggie hater likes artichokes, maybe I need to give them a try again. Its been years since I’ve really had artichokes and these look really good! :-)

Yummm! I want these right NOW!

The texture of artichokes freaks me out a little too. The bf would hate if I covered them in cheese, but they look delicious to me! Maybe I’ll throw some on a plate for him right out of the jar and make mine a little cheesier. :)

I’m the same way– there’s definitely something about the texture of artichokes that kind of throws me for a loop after a few bites. But, buried under enough cheese, I’d be willing to overlook it :-) This looks awesome!

This looks amazing! Yum!

I had a similar dip at a restaurant last night and it was amazing, but I bet yours was better!

i LOVE artichokes and find it boring to eat them just steamed and with a butter dip so this looks perfect! of course if it is covered in cheese :)
Reply
I’d eat anything over in breadcumbs and cheese. These look awesome.

I’m totally with you on the cheese thing. It makes all things better. :) I definitely want to try out this recipe! I have some fresh parmesand just waiting to be used up.

Amazing looking artichokes. Never understood why artichokes get such a bad name, I love them in just about any form in food.

Artichokes covered in cheese!!!! I’ve died and gone to heaven!

A healthy coating of cheese has saved many cooking disasters in my kitchen!

Hahaha I actually really like artichoke hearts! I’ve only ever had artichokes once before, and that time I had to peel through all the leaves by myself. But I could dip it in hollandaise, so that was good.
I can totally see you just picking the cheese off and saying that you ate your veggies ;)

This makes me think of the drooling sound that Homer Simpson makes. In a good way.

I want these now!

Man, that looks good! Too bad last time I tried to feed the family artichokes they almost strung me up. But your concoction looks sooooo deeelightful.

Oh my God. Drooling.

You are so right! Those look AWESOME!

I love artichokes so I could eat them plain, but slathered with parmesan and baked? Doesn’t sound too bad to me! ;-)

just happen to have a can in mu cupboard, making this weekend. THanks.

You can NEVER go wrong by covering something with cheese!!! :)

I don’t like cheese (sometimes ricotta or a little Parmesan is OK, but that’s about it)…I know, I know. Can we still be friends? I like dessert a LOT, so I figure the no-cheese thing allows me about 4 extra cookies after dinner…right?

You have turned into my new girl crush! What a tremendous idea! I can’t WAIT to serve this up!!!

Oh my! This looks so good. You’re so right – cover it with cheese adn I’ll eat it!

I love anything swimming in cheese, but these look especially inviting!

OHMIGOSH i just had the best idea…we should take a blogger’s weekend to COOK and EAT together…you do the cooking, i’ll take care of the eating :) but for real…but it has to be in Pittsburgh because the altitude here will screw with it all…

I’m so excited about this!! Reminds me of spinach artichoke dip :)

No wait, that malibu and cran…that’s the goodness :)
