Where do people use artichoke hearts? I know they're good with spinach and cheese in a dip, but beyond that I'm not sure how to incorporate them.
On pasta with alfredo sauce. Sooooo good. Also on pizza with pesto sauce instead of red sauce.
Tell me more good stuff about me.

So basically they're moist, textured salt bombs, and I could use them where I'd usually have black olives? Sounds good to me. Thanks!
No, they're not that salty. If you get the marinated ones, they tend to be a bit saltier.
I use artichokes mostly in dips or pastas. I make a smoked chicken artichoke lasagna, artichoke lemon pesto that I toss with pasta or put on sandwiches. I make a baked artichoke parmesan dip, or blend with frozen spinach and creme fraiche or sour cream for a bread dip.

Black olives are what I feed to a dog to teach her that human food sucks.

Not until someone tries to add cilantro.
I think that would make it more of a vegan banh mi.

Billytea beat me to it.
Does eating the sandwich involve sporks?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

No, but the muffaletta/banh mi kerfuffle might.

I make a smoked chicken artichoke lasagna
Ooh. That reminds me - my brother use artichokes in an awesome white lasagna (i.e. no tomatoes), along with mushrooms.

And how many of the components can you process using a salad shooter?

I do a white lasagna like this too - spinach, mushrooms, artichokes, chicken, in a white cheese sauce. Nom nom nom.

mine is a white sauce as well. I think that tomato sauce overwhelms the artichoke flavor.

That sounds a lot like my brothers (except no chicken, because his wife is a vegetarian). Including the "nom nom nom".
