Ingredients

  • 2 whole garlic bulbs

  • 1 cartoon (8 oz) spreadable chive and onion cream cheese
  • 1/4 tsp Italian seasoning

Preparation

Step 1

1. Remove papery outer skin from garlic (do not peel or separate cloves). Cut tops off of garlic bulbs; brush each with 1/2 tsp oil. Wrap each bulb in heavy-duty foil. Place garlic and tomatoes in a foil like 9" square baking pan. Brush tomatoes with remaining oil.

2. Bake at 425° for 30-35 minutes or until garlic is softened. Cool for 10-15 minutes; squeeze garlic into small bowl. Drain any liquid from tomatoes; chop and add to garlic. Stir in the cream cheese, Italian seasoning and sale. Serve with your favorite crackers or snack breads.
