Ingredients:

Serving

2 artichokes
1/2 bay leaf
1 large garlic clove, peeled and smashed
water , for steaming (or chicken or veggie broth)
2 garlic cloves, finely minced
1 tbsp margarine
1/2-1 tsp lemon juice ( start small & add more if you want)
1/2 tsp dried dill
1/2 cup nonfat yogurt
salt & pepper
1 pinch cayenne pepper (optional-for heat lovers)
1/2-1 tbsp milk (optional)

Directions:

Trim bottom stalk of artichokes, leaving about 1 inch. Cut off the first couple of inches of the top of the artichoke. If your artichoke is dangerously spikey, or you are serving these to kids/company, you may want to trim the tips of all the remaining leaves with scissors. Rinse the artichokes well, under running water.
Put about 2 inches of water in the bottom of a big pot, and place the artichokes top down. Throw in the bay leaf and crushed garlic clove. Cover and bring to a boil, then lower heat so the liquid is just simmering. Steam like this for about 30-45 minutes.
Make the dip by putting the minced garlic, margarine, and lemon juice in a microwave safe bowl and heating for 30 seconds. Add the dill, yogurt, and salt & pepper. If you want your sauce thick like this, then you are done. I like my dip a little runnier, so i add a little milk until it is the consistancy that i want. Either way, cover and put in the fridge until the artichokes are ready.
Let artichokes cool off for about 10 minutes before serving.
