I was intrigued by the ingredients of this dish, but I think the addition of cream cheese made for too heavy a side dish. Even if it were to be more of a veggie main dish, I find the cream cheese incompatible with the unique flavor of the artichokes. I will try it next time without incorporating cream cheese and maybe instead put a dollop of sour cream or farmer's cheese on the side. Thank you for posting the recipe. Later.. P.S. My husband loved the dish and said it wasn't too heavy for his liking!
