This recipe is delicious for lunch or dinner. It is prepared in just 30 minutes and often provides leftovers for a nutritious snack or "next day" meal.
Made with fresh or canned artichokes, this pie is another way to fit vegetables into a meal. .
This artichokes pie is part of old recipes of my Mom cook book.
We always ate when we were childs all the time.
The funny is I mad ewhen I begin this blog but Im sure nobody remember and in these times I hadn't a camera so dont have pictures.
Now I review the recipe and take pictures is absolutely nice and delicious:)

Se puede hacer con alcachofas frescas, congeladas o en tarro.
Aquí en Chile ahora tenemos muchas alcachofas y estan muy buenas, esta temporada lo he hecho dos veces.
La masa es como de empanada pero liviana y queda muy bueno.
