- Place artichoke in wide bowl; stuff each petal using teaspoon, starting from bottom and going around to each petal with the bread crumb mixture as far as you can go to top.
- Any stuffing in bowl use for next artichoke.
- Pour Caesar Italian dressing over top and sides.
- Artichoke will look like a large flower.
- Steam for 45 minutes to 1 hour (**gourmet shops have artichoke stands that will keep choke from being in water and allow to steam.).
- Let cool a bit.
- Pull flowerette off, dip in sauce and scrape your teeth over the inside of petal.
- Closer in to the heart, petals will be thin whitish purple.
- Do not eat fuzzy part--take sharp knife and cut cone downward to remove fuzzy part.
- The remainder is the heart--cut up and put in dipping sauce and enjoy!

I've relocated to Nashville from Louisiana lived with family for awhile but in my own place in Hermitage, TN . My mother collected cookbooks and I've continued her passion! My favorite cookbook is from my mom, I picked her brain for all her recipes, before she went to heaven. Had fun deciphering if the handful she showed was a cup, or just enough to cover bottom of pot would be WHAT! I now work at a large hospital in the Reference Lab and have people already drooling over the things they hear I can cook!!!! Love the ocean, walking on the beach, or in the woods and mountains, anything to do with water. Like doing a lot of different crafts for my church, sewing,quilting, traveling and of course COOKING!
