There are so many uses Oven roasted garlic is milder than raw garlic as garlic becomes very mellow and easy to spread. This is truly the perfect hummus, in my humble opinion. Roasting the garlic brings out its nutty and sweet flavor and cuts down on the sharpness. This creamy roasted garlic and chickpea soup isn't offensively thick or mushy, and the addition of tender greens gives it some texture contrast.

Fully drain your Artichokes, dethaw your Spinach and completely drain as well. Use cheese cloth to squeeze all fluid from Spinach..

The soup begins with two whole heads of roasted garlic. The roasted garlic mashed potatoes turned out really well! They were so creamy and good. The flavour of the sweet roasted garlic was just amazing. Mash the potatoes along with the garlic, butter, sour, cream cheese and enough milk to bring the potatoes to the desired consistency.
