This is a wonderful, light vegetable side dish. I used red onion and canned tomatoe. I made it at Christmas time and it was a nice change from the heavy, vegetable sides that are popular during the winter.

Wonderful, light-tasting side dish. I only used 1 Tbsp of oil to cut the fat calories. I sliced each tomato and artichoke heart lengthwise. This was so easy to make and a great choice when you want something different for a side. Thanx for posting!
