Today, March 16, is National Artichoke Hearts Day. What are you going to do to celebrate this food-filled holiday? Eat your heart out.

According to the California Artichoke Advisory Board, artichokes are a good source of antioxidants, vitamin C, folate, and magnesium and deserve to be celebrated. The delicious vegetable is also high in fiber, calcium and protein.
