Last night, I boiled up about 15 artichokes in a big pot with a little lemon and salt. When they were done, I took off all of the leaves and discarded them. I took the "hearts" and dusted them in flour and S&P, then egg/milk mixture, then tossed them into a bowl of panko, bread crumbs. From there, they went on to a lightly oiled, sheet pan and into the oven at about 400 degrees F. They baked until they were a nice golden brown. They were heavenly!

As for the plants, I couldn't kill them if I tried. They grow like crazy! I just harvested about a dozen medium sized artichokes and have at least a couple dozen more on the plants that will be ready soon. Anyone have some good, healthy recipes for artichokes? Thanks.
