Tuscan Artichoke Pasta image

This dinner entree is one recommended by Joy Bauer, author of "Your Inner Skinny: Four Steps to Thin Forever." Her recipe calls for frozen artichoke hearts, but I am not sure if that is even available in my area, so I used some marinated artichoke hearts, from a jar, and left out the olive oil in the recipe. This recipe is good either warm or at room temperature.
