Romano Cheese Artichoke Hearts

Welcome back to the All Things Southern kitchen, friends. We’re making some fine little appetizers today. It’s my Romano Cheese Artichoke Hearts and you’ll love ‘em. Let’s get cooking!

“Romano Cheese Artichoke Hearts”

2 cans artichoke hearts, drained
½ cup seasoned bread crumbs
1 cup Romano cheese
1 tsp. garlic powder
Salt and pepper
Olive oil for drizzling

Take a small bowl and a cup of shredded Romano cheese and combine it with a ½ cup of seasoned bread crumbs and a tsp. of garlic powder. You might need to use a little muscle to mash it together. Place the artichoke hearts on a cookie sheet that’s been prepared with cooking spray.

Slice each heart in half, press the middle of each down with our thumb and fill it with a teaspoon or so of our Romano cheese mixture. We’ll slide ‘em in a 350 degree oven and heat ‘em through and through for 10-12 minutes. Then we’ll put ‘em under the broiler until the cheese is well melted and beginning to brown. That’s it! Before we serve ‘em, we’ll drizzle them with olive oil and shake some sea salt and black pepper over the tops. YUM! Enjoy my Romano Cheese Artichoke Hearts, folks. It’s good eating from the All Things Southern kitchen to yours.
