Notes
Vegetable salads tend to absorb most of the marinade; therefore, don't be afraid to add an additional drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and lemon juice to keep the artichoke hearts moist and flavorful.

This sounds wonderful! A perfect way to serve artichokes on a hot summer night (or day)!
Thanks so much, Susan! ๐ Have a great week!
I love the combination of garlic and white wine, but it’s the addition of mint that seems really interesting.
Fresh mint works beautifully with this salad. We highly recommend it! ENJOY and thanks for stopping by! ๐
