Thank you for posting this here! I had this recipe out of the magazine and CANNOT find it anywhere. We love this! -
An EXCELLENT meal! I used regular artichokes in brine, dried tortellini and whole olives I chopped myself. The dish is flavorful and beautiful. Even better the next day reheated. I was going to try it cold a la pasta salad but sadly it's all gone! We will make this again, maybe even swapping out the artichokes for other veggies...
