Parmesan Baked Artichokes


I had high hopes for these parmesan baked artichokes that I made for our latest girl's dinner. The pictures on How Sweet It Is were enticing and I envisioned a gooey cheesy side dish. Unfortunately, my version didn't turn out quite as gooey or cheesy. These were still good--anything with artichokes usually is--but my parmesan instead got crunchy. Boo. I think I'll try these again with fresh parmesan (which is what the original recipe called for. Fail on my part) and hope they turn out as I expected.

1. Preheat oven to 375F.
2. Layer artichokes in a baking dish. Drizzle olive oil on top. Season with salt, garlic powder, and italian seasoning.
