Crockpot Artichokes

Here's a simple recipe for some delcious artichokes made in, you guessed it, the crockpot.

Fresh Artichokes

2 large fresh artichokes
6 cups hot water
4 small lemons, sliced thin

With sharp knife, slice about 1" off top of each artichoke; cut off stem near base. With scissors, trim about 1/2" off top of each leaf. With sharp knife, halve each artichoke vertically; then scoop out and discard the fuzzy center of choke.

Place artichoke halves in your crock pot; add hot water and lemon slices. Cover and cook on HIGH 4 to 5 hrs. or until done. Drain and serve with Lemon Butter Sauce, as below...

Lemon Butter Sauce

1/3 cup melted butter
3 tbs lemon juice
1/4 tsp Seasoned salt

Combine all ingredients.
