I couldn't believe all of the flavors this had and it was so easy to make. Aside from having to grill the artichokes. I would recommend you let the artichokes on the grill a little longer than 10 minutes because you want it to have almost a crispness on the artichoke. I even used canned halved artichokes and so it saved time. Will definately be making this one again.
