Garlic Roasted Puree

Directions

1. 1
   Preheat oven to 350 or 325 for a glass pan.
2. 2
   Slice bottoms off heads of garlic to loosen cloves.
3. 3
   Leave skins intact.
4. 4
   Place in shallow bake-ware pan.
5. 5
   NOTE: I have arthritis and slicing the bottoms off can be difficult so I slice straight across the middle and put both halves in the pan, sliced side down.
6. 6
   Drizzle with olive oil.
7. 7
   Bake for 20 minutes (I do 30 minutes for a milder flavor).
8. 8
   Cool.
9. 9
   Slip off skins and place in garlic in the food processor (or use a stick blender).
10. 10
    Add salt, pepper and lemon juice.
11. 11
    Process until smooth.
12. 12
    Spread this mild puree on toast French bread, baked potatoes or grilled chicken.
