PlayFood: Artichoke Nibbles
"Heart's Ease" 2 jars (6 oz. each) marinated artichoke hearts 1 small onion, finely chopped 1 clove garlic, minced or pressed 4 large eggs ¼ cup fine dry bread crumbs 1/8 teaspoon each pepper, dry oregano leaves, and liquid hot pepper seasoning 2 cups (8 oz.) shredded sharp Cheddar cheese 2 tablespoons minced parsley Drain marinade from 1 jar of artichokes into a 10- to 12-inch frying pan. Drain remaining jar; reserve marinade for other uses. Chop all artichokes and set aside. Heat marinade in frying pan over medium heat; add onion and garlic and cook, stirring, until onion is soft. In a bowl, beat eggs with a fork. Stir in breadcrumbs, pepper, oregano, and hot pepper seasoning. Then stir in cheese, parsley, artichokes, and onion mixture. Pour into a greased 7- by 11 -inch baking pan bake, uncovered, in a 525 degree oven until custard feels set when lightly touched, about 30 minutes. Let stand in pan until warm, about 15 minutes, or let cool completely. Cut into 1 –inch squares. Playfood requires about 160-180 pieces, so it looks like you should make the recipe three times. These are best when served hot.
