  • 2 tbsp mayonnaise (or Greek yogurt for a lighter version)
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 small shallot, finely chopped

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Artichoke Filling: In a bowl, combine chopped artichoke hearts, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, finely chopped shallot, celery (if using), capers or pickles, chopped parsley, and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust the lemon juice to achieve your preferred tanginess.
  2. Toast the Bread: Lightly toast the bread slices if desired for extra texture and warmth.
