SAUCY BEANS AND ARTICHOKE HEARTS WITH FETA
Use the biggest beans you can buy for this Greek-inspired dish-baby limas are easy to find, but gigante beans are amazing too. Serve it at room temperature with bread, a salad, and a cold bottle of wine for the kind of summer lunch you can linger over for hours.

Steps:
- Heat onion and 1/2 cup oil (start from cold) in a large heavy pot or Dutch oven over medium. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is translucent, 10-12 minutes. Add tomatoes, garlic, tomato paste, 1 tsp. oregano, 1/2 tsp. red pepper flakes, and 2 tsp. salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce is thickened and most of the liquid is evaporated, 15-20 minutes. Stir in 1 cup water and bring to a boil.
- Meanwhile, heat 1 Tbsp. oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high until shimmering. Working in batches and adding more oil if needed, cook artichokes cut sides down until deeply browned on cut sides, 6-8 minutes. Transfer to pot with sauce.
- Add beans to pot and stir to combine. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until beans are heated through and flavors have melded, about 10 minutes. Taste, and add more salt if needed.
- Transfer bean mixture to a large serving bowl or dish. Top with feta, oregano, and red pepper flakes and drizzle with oil. Let sit at least 10 minutes for feta to soften before serving warm or at room temperature.
MEDITERRANEAN ARTICHOKE STEW
A zesty, hearty dish that is delicious both hot AND cold. Artichokes, lemon, and some spices make up the base of the flavor, and the addition of potatoes and garbanzo beans (chickpeas) add substance. Wonderful served with just a fresh green salad. I adapted this from a Madhur Jaffrey recipe from "World Vegetarian" ("Artichokes Stewed with Potatoes," labeled as Moroccan) by adjusting the spices a little bit and adding the chickpeas.

Steps:
- Peel and dice potatoes into 1" or so chunks. Put in a medium (3 quart or so) pot along with the frozen artichokes.
- Drain and rinse the can of chickpeas and add to the pot. Halve the lemon and either squeeze it on a juicer, or pick out as many seeds as possible and squeeze directly into the pot. Add olive oil, spices, and water (you want it to just barely cover the solid ingredients).
- Stir ingredients in pot and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to a simmer.
- Cook for about 20 minutes, either covered or uncovered - if you want it to be soupier, cover the pot, but if you want a lot of the liquid to evaporate and be more like a stew, leave it uncovered. Stir occasionally. You can always cook it longer than 20 minutes if you like your potatoes very soft, and they will absorb more flavor the longer you cook. Really, it is hard to overcook this dish.
MOOSEWOOD CHICKPEA AND ARTICHOKE HEART STEW
This recipe is from Moosewood. I never add the winter squash because I don't have any on hand and don't go through the trouble to make it... although they do suggest using a jar of baby food. I also substitute a tablespoon or two of curry powder with the 1 tsp turmeric. I also add some feta cheese if I have some in my fridge. It adds a nice flavor to the stew. Everybody always asks about it at work and wants the recipe. This stew tastes better the next day and freezes well.

MEDITERRANEAN ARTICHOKE AND FRESH FAVA STEW
Favas, artichokes, spring onions and green garlic are all fleetingly in season at the same time. Here's a way to use them all together. This dish is based on a Greek olive oil recipe, meaning that the vegetables are traditionally stewed in two or three times as much oil as I use here. I substitute water for some of the oil.

Steps:
- Trim the artichokes, cut in half and immediately submerge in a bowl of water acidulated with the juice of 1/2 lemon.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over medium heat in a large, heavy casserole or Dutch oven. Add the onion, and cook, stirring, until tender, about three minutes. Add the garlic, and cook, stirring, for a minute until fragrant. Drain the artichokes, and add the skinned fava beans, the fennel or dill, and the juice of 1 lemon (3 tablespoons) and the remaining olive oil. Add enough water to just cover everything, and salt to taste. Bring to a simmer. Cover and simmer 20 to 30 minutes until the vegetables are tender and the broth fragrant.
- Turn the heat to high, and reduce the liquid in the pan by about a third. Stir in a generous amount of freshly ground pepper. Taste and adjust salt. Serve warm.

CREAMY SPINACH-ARTICHOKE CHICKEN STEW
This creamy chicken stew is spinach-artichoke dip reimagined as a simple stovetop braise. It comes together quickly, thanks to frozen spinach and jarred artichoke hearts, though if you have time, there is also a slow-cooker version of this recipe. Fresh dill and scallions are added just before serving, and provide bright, herbal flavor that offsets the richness of the finished dish.

Steps:
- In a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat, melt the butter. Add the onion, season lightly with salt, and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the celery and cook, stirring, until softened, about 5 minutes, adjusting the heat as necessary to avoid scorching. Stir in the garlic.
- Pour in the stock and wine, and bring to a bubble. Add the chicken thighs, lemon juice and red-pepper flakes; season with 1 teaspoon salt and a generous amount of pepper. Mix well to combine all the ingredients and bring to a boil.
- Reduce the heat to maintain a low simmer and simmer, uncovered, for 20 minutes.
- Add the frozen spinach and the artichoke hearts to the pot. Increase the heat to medium-high and cook, stirring to help the spinach defrost and wilt into the stew. When the spinach is warm and evenly distributed, reduce the heat and simmer until the chicken is tender and the flavors are blended, another 10 to 15 minutes.
- Add the cream cheese in dollops, stirring to melt it into the soup. Add the dill. Using two forks, coarsely break or shred the chicken into large chunks. Taste and add more salt and black pepper if necessary.
- Divide the stew among bowls, and top with scallions and Parmesan.
