In addition to being delicious, roasted garlic boasts some awesome nutrition. While there are great benefits from eating raw garlic, it’s a bit strong, so roasting it is a great way to consume this bulbous little plant. Roasted garlic adds to much flavor and depth to dishes and goes with so many other flavors. There is a reason onions and garlic are the base of so many recipes. We have garlic filled sauces, snacks, entrees, and sides! Try these 15 roasted garlic recipes from the Food Monster App to see what we mean!
