Lemon-Parmigiano Artichoke Casserole

Submitted by periwinklejenn

"The flavors in this recipe remind me of the delicious stuffed, braised artichokes that my mom makes, but it much simpler and quicker to prepare. It is very flavorful and great for a healthy side dish or appetizer. I enjoy citrus flavors -- if you are not as much a fan or do not like stronger lemon flavors you may want to reduce the amount of lemon. I hope you enjoy it!"

This is an easy, fast and convenient side dish to make. I made a few adjustments: added lemon zest as well as the juice and used shaved parmigiano reggiano vs. grated parmigiano. This is a solid dish, yummy but could use something else to make it great. I just can't put my finger on it quite yet.
