I made a lemon basil spaghetti with roasted artichokes tonight that was pretty good. The ingredients were simple, I went to the store for a bag of frozen artichokes and new wedge of parm but we had the rest. I read about it on nytimes today thinking oooh, exotic, I’ll impress the missus. And when I grabbed the bag of frozen artichokes they helpfully had a recipe on the side: for lemon spaghetti with roasted artichokes.

Anyways, just google it. Less than 10 bucks if you have spaghetti and olive oil already.
