Serves 4
 
Ingredients
2 packages (9 oz each) frozen artichoke hearts
1 tablespoon lemon juice
3 tablespoons ground pecans
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning, crushed
1 clove garlic, minced
1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375° F. Coat a 9" glass pie plate with cooking spray.
Place the artichokes in a colander and rinse well with cold water to separate. Drain well, then pat dry with paper towels. Place in the prepared pie plate and sprinkle with the lemon juice.
In a small bowl, combine the pecans, cheese, Italian seasoning, garlic, and oil. Sprinkle the mixture evenly over the artichokes.
Bake for 15 minutes, or until the topping is golden.
