Artichokes with Prosciutto, Feta and Mint

Don’t these look too good to eat? These bite size parcels are perfect for entertaining and is another great recipe adapted from Australian Good Taste Magazine. Artichokes are an excellent source of magnesium, folic acid, fiber and vitamin C. They are also known to help poor liver function which in turn helps to lower blood cholesterol.

Serves 8
100g goats feta
100g (about 6 slices) prosciutto
280g whole marinated artichokes, drained and halved
1/4 cup fresh mint leaves

Cut the feta into 3cm wide slices and cut the prosciutto length ways into 1cm wide slices. Top each artichoke half with one feta slice and one mint leaf. Wrap one prosciutto slice around each artichoke and place on a serving platter. Season with pepper.

    Great recipe. Mint is so under used in savory dishes. Well done!
