Artichokes with Vegan Lemon Butter Sauce

Yield: 2-4 Artichokes

  • 2-4 artichokes
  • 1/4 cup organic margarine
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • pepper to taste

Wash artichokes, then trim the stems and remove the loose outer leaves. Cut off 1 inch from each of the artichoke tops and then cut of the sharp tips of each leaf, brushing the cut edges with lemon juice. Fill a kettle with salted water and bring it to a boil over a high heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium, add artichokes, and simmer for 20-30 minutes, until the leaf pulls easily out of the artichoke.
