I Love Artichoke Season
Tuesday April 28, 2009
At this time of year I feel very fortunate to live near the Artichoke Capitol of the World. The markets here fill up with artichokes of all sizes. Did you know that a medium artichoke has 4 grams of effective carbohydrate and 10 grams of fiber? Please don't be intimidated by them -- they are delicious, healthy, and fun to eat! Check out this carb profile, and lots of other information about artichokes.
