Ingredients

1 lb. sunchokes

1 small lemon

Water to boil

Pam (or other non-stick spray coating)

about 3 tablespoons butter

3 oz. shredded Monterey Jack Cheese

Salt

Pepper

Directions

Wash in water and peel sunchokes, placing sunchokes as they are peeled in a pan of cold water with juice of 1 lemon squeezed in. The lemon/water mixture should just cover the sunchokes.

Boil the sunchokes in the lemon/water mixture for 5-8 minutes until almost done.

Drain the sunchokes and rinse quickly with water, then slice in even thickness and arrange them in one layer in square baking pan which has been sprayed with Pam.

Dot with butter.

Sprinkle cheese evenly over the sunchokes.

Bake in a 375F oven for about 20 minutes, or until done and covering bubbly as you like.

Remove from oven and salt and pepper to taste
