Artichokes are one of my favorite vegetables, and they are in season right now, so I thought I would tell you about their health benefits. I have actually talked about artichokes before, but they are really super for you, and I wanted to share a recipe, so I though I would recap them. Artichokes have anti-cancer properties, raise your good cholesterol, lower your bad cholesterol, and are anti-inflammatory. They supposedly can even be used as deodorant and breath freshener.
One of the easiest ways to prepare artichokes is to steam them or use their hearts as an ingredient in dips, like this healthier version of the classic artichoke dip.
Now, for the recipe I wanted to share – Grilled Baby Artichokes. These are just divine.
