What to serve these lemon artichoke hearts with:
If you are going to make a big batch of these for a party or get together, I highly recommend serving them with some simple dairy free arugula cashew pesto to take them up a notch! Pesto and these artichoke hearts are a match made in heaven!

Could this be made with canned artichokes? Thanks!
Great question Linda – yes you could make this with canned artichokes. You may not have to cook them as long since you don’t have to worry about them defrosting.
Very good and easy
