Time 10m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

1 cup artichoke heart, cooked (canned would be fine, and roughly chopped)
1/8 cup raw pine nuts
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 small garlic clove, peeled and minced
1/3 cup parmesan cheese, finely grated
coarse salt, a pinch (just a little since the parmesan is salty, you can always add more salt when finished)
fresh ground black pepper, a few grinds
1 -2 teaspoon fresh tarragon leaves, thinly sliced (use as much as you would like, to taste...I like 1 t.)

Steps:

Pulse the first 7 ingredients together in a food processor. Stir in the tarragon and season to taste with more salt and pepper, if needed.
Enjoy!
