I dedicate this video to Meri who cannot cook artichokes.

Ingredients:
Artichokes
Parmesan Cheese
Olive Oil
Turkey Pepperoni (because she doesn't eat red meat)
Garlic
Salt
Water


Cut the stems off the artichoke and trim the tips of the leaves to avoid getting cut by the thorns.

Cut the cheese into chunks about 1/2" long 1/4" thick

Peel and slice the garlic, I use about 2 cloves per artichoke.

Stuff the artichokes, place them in a pot, add the olive oil and salt. Add water to the level of 3/4 the height of the artichokes.

Cook for 60-90 minutes. Occasionally check the water level, add more if needed.

They are done when you can pull out a leaf without any effort.
