I made these today, artichokes are in season and fantastic looking!

Well the artichokes were delicious. In the recipe you can opt to include the breadcrumbs or not. I might reduce the amount of breadcrumbs or dispense with them entirely next time around. Otherwise they were delicious.

The Garden at Victoria St

What is better than using fresh herbs? GROWING fresh herbs, not five
