Artichoke Salsa

Submitted by Chef #1365024

"Salsa doesn’t have to mean “South of the Border.” This one is 100 percent Italian, loaded with tomatoes and artichokes (1/4 cup of vegetables, and all the nutrients they provide, in each portion) and flavor. Serve it on slices of whole-grain toast, or as a dip for chips, crackers or vegetables. And, if you’re really enterprising it makes a great pizza topping.
