Lemon cream artichokes
This simple, yet fantastic lemony side dish is deceiving. How can something so easy, taste so good and look so impressive on a plate? Dr. Sarah Hallberg’s husband, Brad, gets the credit for creating this tasty dish. This has become one of my family’s favorites, and is easy enough to make my list for weeknight dinner sides.
