Although we’re a few days shy of spring, spring is artichoke season, and National Artichoke Hearts Day is March 16th. We have a collection of artichoke recipes below, and our featured recipe is Roasted Potatoes & Artichokes (photo #1).
If you shop at specialty markets, you may come across purple artichokes and baby purple artichokes. They taste the same, but the color is a novelty.

RECIPE: ROAST POTATOES & ARTICHOKES
This recipe from DeLallo uses their marinated artichokes. We had a can of unmarinated artichokes (they’re packed in water, salt and citric acid) and used them instead. We opted not to toss them with oil and spices to simulate marinated artichokes, and liked the results just fine. Either option works.
Serve this dish with any protein: roasted chicken, grilled salmon, meatloaf, any family favorite.
Ingredients
1½ pounds red potatoes
¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon red pepper flakes
2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped
1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
Salt and pepper
1 jar (24-ounces) marinated artichoke Hearts, drained
Preparation
1. PREHEAT the oven to 400°F. Cover a baking sheet with a layer of parchment paper.
2. DICE the potatoes into 1- to 1 ½-inch squares. Add the potatoes, oil, pepper flakes, herbs, and salt and pepper to a large mixing bowl. Toss well to combine.
3. TRANSFER the potatoes to the baking sheet, arranging them in a single layer. Roast in the oven for 30 minutes, stirring the potatoes one or two times.
4. SPREAD the artichokes on top of the potatoes and roast for 10 more minutes. Remove from the oven, place on a large platter, and serve.
