INSTRUCTIONS
Prep time: 30 minutes Artichoke hearts. Using a very sharp paring knife, cut away all the leaves and the choke to get to the heart; discard outer leaves, choke and thistle. Thinly slice raw hearts and place them in a bowl with orange juice. Remove outer leaves and top, feathery parts of fennel. Remove onion skin and cut off both ends of onion. Slice fennel and onions paper thin, and add to raw hearts. Add orange slices, garlic, tarragon, olive oil and chili flakes, and season with salt to taste. Allow to stand at room temperature for 15 minutes. Retoss and serve on leaves of butter lettuce. Top with Asiago cheese shavings.

A Message from our Provider:
“We can do nothing, we say sometimes, we can only pray. That, we feel, is a terribly precarious second-best. So long as we can fuss and work and rush about, so long as we can lend a hand, we have some hope; but if we have to fall back upon God — ah, then things must be critical indeed! #A.J. Gossip”
