I love artichokes so I was happy to find this one. Makes a good party appetizer!
If you're serving these appetizers at a party, use a hot tray, griddle, or bun warmer to keep them warm at the serving table.

Yield
16 servings (serving size: 1 square)

Ingredients
Cooking spray
3 tablespoons chopped green onions
1 (14-ounce) can artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
2 large eggs
2 large egg whites
3/4 cup (3 ounces) shredded reduced-fat Swiss cheese
1/2 cup plain fat-free yogurt
1/2 cup whole wheat breadcrumbs
1/4 teaspoon salt

Preparation
1. Preheat oven to 350°.

2. Heat a small nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat. Add green onions; sauté 3 minutes or until tender. Remove from heat. Add artichoke hearts and chopped parsley; stir gently.

3. Beat eggs and egg whites in a large bowl with a whisk. Add cheese, yogurt, breadcrumbs, and salt; stir well. Stir in artichoke mixture.

4. Spread mixture in an 8-inch square baking pan coated with cooking spray. Bake at 350° for 20 minutes or until set. Cut into squares. Serve warm.

Microwave Instructions: Prepare steps 2 and 3 as directed. Spread mixture in an 8-inch square baking dish coated with cooking spray. Place in microwave oven on an inverted saucer. Microwave, uncovered, at MEDIUM-HIGH (70% power) 11 to 12 minutes or until set, rotating a half-turn every 3 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes.

    Dont have to have a party to have these. At 42 calories per serving I make them and store them covered in the fridge then warm them up and eat them with reduced fat crackers when I want a snack. :smooched: Good stuff!!!
