Very good. My first time trying Fontina Cheese and Artichokes as well...it's an acquired taste, but I think I'll do well. :) Thanks for the great recipe. -
What a great salad MarieAlice. The flavours all combine perfectly, love the addition of the basil. I did wonder what size my Italian bread slices should be...in the end I decided to use s'kat's recipe#15658 for the bread - not Italian but I love the texture of the bread. This salad will certainly be one of our regulars!!
