I love hearts of palm in salads or as a snack. I saw a recipe months
ago for a pie and finally made it two nights ago. It was weird but
addictive. We chopped up the (unfortunately) dry pork chops last
night and simmered them in bottled Q sauce and had it with onion rolls
I made. The pie was better the second night and will be made next
time I do "real" Q. Perfect mix.

That looks like the turkey pot pie I made the other day... I've only
had hearts of palm once a looonnng time ago when I was a kid, in a
salad, I think. This did inspire me to want to try something along
those lines but with artichoke hearts. By the way, looks great!

Hearts of palm are not as sweet as artichoke hearts. The recipe I
used had onion, tomato, parsley, garlic, hard cooked eggs and a chili.
I actually did think about artichoke but I decided to see how it came
out as per the recipe. It was also the first time I'd made my own
crust. You can see from the picture I struggled with the top. I had
to make it in a cast pan because we've moved everything to the new
house and we're still stuck here in the old one cuz we can't sell the
dang thing. Next time I think I'll use ramekins for individual pies.

What ingredients would you use with the artichoke hearts? I'm
thinking spinach, onion, tarragon and parmesan cheese. Any other
ideas?

Well thank you. I'm happy someone noticed it. If you do the
artichoke thing I'd love to see a picture too!!

Garlic, of course- maybe a little lemon, hmmmm- I'm going to have to
think about it a little. Maybe crab or shrimp?

That looks more than interesting! How about topped with puff dough?
