Recipe Tip
Gadzooks, It's Garlic
Garlic is a phytonutrient--a plant nutrient. It's not necessary for life, but it may have some healthful benefits and lots of flavor!

Amazing!
This is a deceptively simple, and incredibly delicious recipe! I altered it a bit by mixing additional olive oil, sea salt, pepper and Italian seasoning to the cooked garlic. Served on french bread! So good!
