Artichokes with Bread Crumb Stuffing

This was the only way that I would eat artichokes growing up.  Melt butter for a decadent dipping sauce.

Ingredients
2/3 cup seasoned bread crumbs
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Whole Artichokes (approx. 3 for this recipe)

Preparation

1. Mix bread crumbs, cheese, and garlic powder.
2. Snip off tips of artichoke leaves and cut bottom so the artichoke can sit stem side down
3. Rinse with water, pouring into petals, shake.
4. Fill leaves with bread crumb mixture
5. Cover in pot on steamer rack, steam for 45 minutes.
6. Serve with melted butter
