Directions
Southern Italian Baby Artichokes , These are SERIOUSLY addictive! I learned these from a woman from Calabria Italy She is an amazing cook! So worth all the work , I love artichokes but this was my first taste of baby artichokes OMG! I loved them I made them exactly as instructed and they were great The bread crumbs at the end give them a nice little crunch They also have no choke so when you have eaten them down a little you are home free! I had them with a little miracle whip , Just made this today I had a bunch of baby artichokes and it was great Not as good as stuffed artichokes, but in a pinch it did fine
