A - Z Blogging Challenge - G



So simple and always a big hit!  Serve as an appetizer with crackers and a warm, sliced baguette.  Delicious!!


  “G”




Garlic - Roasted

4 heads of garlic  (for 6-8 people)
olive oil
salt and pepper

Cut top off each head.  Place each head on a doubled square of aluminum foil.  Drizzle each head with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.  Wrap foil around each head.  Place on a small sheet pan and roast in a 400 degree F. oven for 1 hour.  Unwrap heads and place on serving tray.  Guests can peel a clove from the head and squeeze it onto their cracker or bread.

    I love garlic for cooking but I've never tried it on its own! This is intriguing. But do I have the guts to try it? Hmm....

    I love the roasted garlic they serve with French bread at the uptown restaurants. This sounds even more yummy and so easy....I'll have to give it try.

    Wow, I never though to try it on it's own. ( I always use the powder when I cook) I may have to try this recipe. Thanks for sharing, and thanks for stopping by my blog! :)

    I'm a huge garlic fan. Love the stuff.

    My mother-in-law used to make this. She'd spread the cloves on french or italian bread with avocado. So good...
