Ingredients

Scale

Artichoke Salad Filling

  • 1 can (400g) artichoke hearts, drained and roughly chopped
  • 2 tbsp mayonnaise (or Greek yogurt for a lighter version)
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 small shallot, finely chopped
  • 1 celery stalk, finely chopped (optional)
  • 1 tbsp capers or chopped pickles (optional)
  • Small handful fresh parsley, chopped
  • Juice of ½ lemon
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Sandwich Assembly

  • Country bread, whole wheat bread, or ciabatta
  • Lettuce or arugula leaves
  • Optional cheese (feta, mozzarella, or provolone)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Artichoke Filling: In a bowl, combine the roughly chopped artichoke hearts, mayonnaise or Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, finely chopped shallot, celery if using, capers or pickles, chopped parsley, and lemon juice. Season generously with salt and pepper. Mix well and adjust lemon juice to achieve desired tanginess for a bright flavor.
  2. Assemble Sandwiches: Lightly toast your choice of bread to add a slight crunch. Spread a generous amount of the prepared artichoke salad mixture evenly on one slice. Layer with fresh lettuce or arugula leaves and add optional cheese if desired, such as feta, mozzarella, or provolone.
  3. Serve: Top the sandwich with the second slice of bread, then cut in half if preferred. Serve immediately for best texture and flavor alongside a fresh side salad or homemade chips.

Notes

  • You can substitute mayonnaise with Greek yogurt to reduce calories and add a tangy flavor.
  • The celery and capers are optional but add a nice crunch and briny contrast.
  • Adjust lemon juice according to your preference for acidity and freshness.
  • Use sturdy, crusty bread types such as ciabatta or country bread to hold the filling well without sogginess.
  • This sandwich is best consumed immediately after assembly to maintain texture and freshness.
