If you have never prepared an artichoke before, the task might seem a little daunting. After all they do appear to be covered in small layers of armor and if you’re not careful when you pick one up, it will bite you! This is because the artichoke is part of the thistle family of flowering plants which are characterized by their ‘prickles’. The not so scary, wonderful thing about artichokes, besides the fact that they taste delicious, is that they are a fountain of nutritional goodness!
One large artichoke contains only 25 calories, NO fat, 170 milligrams of potassium and they happen to be a great source of vitamin C, folate, Magnesium and dietary fiber. There are 6 grams of fiber in one large artichoke which makes that more fiber than one cup of prunes! Some new studies have also shown that artichokes contain an unusual high amount of anti-oxidants in the form of phytonutrients. Great!!
