Roasted Artichoke Salad

One of the frozen vegetables that is always in my shopping list and in my freezer is artichoke. If you haven't bought them, they come in a bag and most of the time there is nothing else added to it, always read the ingredient list to make sure what you are buying. I add artichoke hearts to empanadas filling, make salads, for pastas, soups or just roast in the oven or airfryer with olive oil and herbs. You also can find them in a can, and usually there are herbs and salt added to it, the texture is super soft and are good for salads and fillings too, I haven’t roasted canned ones. This salad holds perfectly in the fridge for a few days, it’s perfect to make ahead when you have guests or for meal prepping, you always can add arugula, croutons, nuts, or seeds right before serving. For this recipe you need just a few ingredients and it is so versatile that you can add anything. When you make it let me know in the comments if you added any other vegetable to this salad.
