I also usually boil artichokes, but this recipe called for steaming- I liked it a lot better. I usually have to squeeze out all the water (and nutrients, probably) after I boil it, but I was really happy to discover this method- I'll never go back to boiling.
This sauce would be great on so many things- tacos, bean salad, Three Sisters Casserole, scrambled eggs. You could probably keep a jar in the fridge for a while. I go through a lot of the Trader Joe's green salsa, but I think I could use this instead and save some money.
Using a third of the olive oil, one artichoke with sauce is only 2 WW points. I dare anyone to beat that for a lunch!
Here are the recipes-
Perfect Steamed Artichokes
Jalapeno-Orange Dipping Sauce
There were lots of other dipping sauces for artichokes in the May '08 issue, but I haven't gotten to them yet.
