1 tablespoon chopped garlic
1 package (9 ounces) frozen artichokes, thawed, drained

1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
4 large eggs, beaten
8 ounces Monterey jack cheese or pepper jack cheese,
shredded
2 tablespoons Atkins Quick Cuisine
TM Bake Mix
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
1/2 teaspoon salt

1. Preheat oven to 325F. In a medium skillet over mediumhigh
heat, heat oil and saut green onion until softened,
about 4 minutes. Add garlic and saut until aroma is
released, about 30 seconds. Add artichokes, oregano
and pepper flakes and cook until artichokes are warmed
through, about 2 minutes. Allow to cool slightly, about 5
minutes.
2. In a large bowl, gently whisk eggs, cheese, bake mix,
parsley, salt and pepper until well-combined. Using a
wooden spoon, stir in artichoke mixture.
3. Pour artichoke batter into an 8 square baking dish and
bake 30 minutes, until set and slightly golden on top.
Cool slightly before cutting into squares.
This easy side dish can be made up to three days in advance
and can be served hot, cold or at room temperature.
