I have written about these little wonders before so in this entry I’ll just give the recipe.

12 oz oil-marinated artichoke hearts

1 clove of garlic, minced

1 small onion, finely chopped

1/4 tsp salt1/4 tsp each: pepper, dried oregano, tabasco

4 eggs

1/2 cup dry bread crumbs

1/2 lb sharp cheddar cheese, shredded

  1. Drain about half of oil marinade into a skillet and heat over medium heat. Chop artichokes and set aside. Add garlic to skillet and cook, stirring, about 30 seconds. Add onion and cook until limp, about 5 minutes. Add seasonings, remove from stove and let cool sightly.
  2. In a bowl, beat eggs with a fork. Add half of crumbs, cheese, and reserved artichokes. When cool, add onion mixture.
  3. Turn into a lightly greased 7×11 baking pan and sprinkle with remaining crumbs. Bake at 325 for 30 minutes. Let cool in pan then cut into small, bite-sized squares.
    Serve at room temp.
