You may remember a few weeks back that I blathered on about making stuffed artichokes. I had many people simply astonished that I didn't like 'em.
So, I decided to give them another try. This time- letting Mr. Bird's Eye do all the work- and me doing all the eating.
I bought a bag of frozen artichokes and took Scintilla's advice to use them with goat cheese on a pizza.
So, that is just what I did!
I used thawed and dried artichoke hearts, chunks of creamy goat cheese, kalamata olives, some chopped tomatoes, salt, pepper, oregano and olive oil and baked it atop the pizza dough.
The result was a beautiful sight to behold as well as to devour!
I thought the pizza was delicious- artichoke hearts and all. Now, I'll be finding ways to use them in pasta and dips as well.
Thanks to Scintilla for the idea and for making an artichoke eater outta me!
What are some of your favorite pizza combo's?

And speaking of Italian Food, Amie of Ciao Bambino asked me to do a guest post about Italy on her blog and what better to talk about than Italian food. Well, the article is a bit more about Italian food experiences. In Venice and Florence to be exact.
Either way, it is currently up on her blog- so please head on over and feel free to leave a comment over there for me!
