Equipment

Aluminum foil

Ingredients

3 heads of garlic $1.74
1 Tbsp olive oil $0.22
½ tsp salt $0.01

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400°F. Cut the top off each bulb of garlic so the tops of some of the cloves are exposed.*
Peel away some of the excess paper to clean them up a bit.
Transfer the prepared bulbs of garlic (and the little pieces saved from the top of each!) to a piece of aluminum foil. Pour the olive oil over the garlic and sprinkle with salt.
Wrap the garlic up together in the aluminum foil and place on a baking sheet in the oven. Roast in the oven for 30 minutes.

Notes

*You don’t want to cut off too much; just enough so the oil can permeate the entire head of garlic! I like to save the little tops of the garlic I chopped off and roast those, too.
