INSTRUCTIONS
SERVINGS VEGAN Tender artichoke hearts, peppery arugula greens, grapeseed oil and toasted pumpkin seed oil give this salad a unique, robust flavor. In large saucepan, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Place cut sides of garlic heads down to heat in oil for 5 minutes. Add white wine and vinegar to pan and reduce to half. Add bouquet garni, stock and water to pan and bring to a boil over high heat. Add artichokes and set aside to cool. Measure our and strain 2 cups of braising liquid into medium saucepan. Reduce braising liquid by three- quarters, about 1/2 cup. Transfer reduction to small bowl and slowly drizzle in olive and grapeseed oils. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside. To assemble, remove leaves from artichokes and scoop our inner chokes. Cut artichoke hearts into eighths. In a large bowl, mix greens and artichoke pieces. Toss salad with enough artichoke vinaigrette to lightly coat. Divide salad among individual serving plates. Arrange cheese over top of each and scatter with pumpkin seeds. Drizzle vinaigrette and pumpkin seed oil around edges of plates for presentation if desired. PER SERVING: 263 CAL; 9G PROT.; 9G TOTAL FAT (2G SAT. FAT); 36G CARB.; 20MG CHOL.; 298MG SOD.; 1G FIBER.
