Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Arrange baguette slices on a baking sheet. Lightly brush with olive oil and toast in the oven for 6–8 minutes, or until lightly golden.
In a medium bowl, mix chopped artichokes, Parmesan, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, parsley, salt, and pepper.
Spoon the artichoke mixture evenly onto each toasted bread slice.
Return to the oven and bake for another 5–7 minutes, until the tops are warm and slightly golden.
