when i was a kid making little english muffin pizzas (by way of the toaster oven and microwave), i always put marinated artichokes on mine. i guess it was kind of weird for a kid my age to be able to polish off a jar of them in one sitting, but hey.

99% of the vegetables i ate back then were consumed only under the threat of no snacks, because they were frozen and my dad would simply microwave them to death and without any seasoning. but for some reason, whole steamed fresh artichokes were also a semi-regular occurrence. and they were good. really good. this was rhode island too so i can't explain it other than to say the 80s were a wild time.

anyway, this recipe brought back so many fond memories and i definitely gotta try this fried empanadilla version!

Love this idea! I love spinach+artichoke, this sounds equally delicious

You could definitely add spinach, or mushrooms or even olives!!!

These look delicious! I have never used any prepared discs, just my own wildly amateur dough-- i think this will be a great improvement!

❤️❤️❤️ marinated artichokes! And I didn't even know that we produced so many here in California. How cool is that?!!
