This was so easy to throw together for dinner tonight and absolutely delicious, to boot! In lieu of the garlic salt, I sauteed a little fresh minced garlic along with the artichokes (canned), and beat about 1/4 cup cream in with the eggs. I omitted the top crust and used a rolled, refrigerated pie dough. Fifty minutes did the trick. Thanks so much for sharing....I know what I'm having for breakfast tomorrow (and maybe lunch, too!).

It's a snap to throw together. I mod the recipe by adding a half cup of homemade pesto for Italian effect, a half cup of Trader Joe's Hatch Valley Salsa for Mexican.

I'm going to review this but withhold my stars for the time being (sorry!) I made an attempt at this with a bottom crust only, and then I got excited and added some spinach and some ham. The result was very good as well and came out like the world's best quiche, but I want to try this as intended with just the artichokes (but one crust still. Carbs don't like me much...) If it's this addictive then I suspect it doesn't need me playing mad scientist to come out spectacular!
