50 Recipes for Garlic Lovers
They say “A little garlic goes a long way”, but I say “the more the better”. I’m a garlic lover, are you? Nothing smells better than cooking garlic on the stove or having it roast in the oven. And the flavor? The flavor of garlic can go with anything; vegetables, meat, sauces, rolls, and so much more.
What I also love about garlic is that you can buy it fresh and prep it yourself or you can get a jar of minced garlic for convenience. The ease of preparing garlic makes it easy to cook with and comes with some added benefits.
Tip: Here’s how to store garlic to make it last for months!
Benefits of Garlic:
Here are a few health benefits that garlic may help with (note, I’m not a Doctor!)
- Garlic can combat sickness, including the common cold. Roasted garlic is commonly eaten to combat side effects of the flu.
- Garlic is highly nutritious, but has very few calories.
- The active compounds in garlic can reduce blood pressure.
- Garlic improves cholesterol levels which may lower the risk of heart disease.
- It helps protect you against vampire attacks. Just kidding. Or am I? 🙂
- And more!
Don’t you love it? If garlic can help my health a little bit, I’m all in!
How to Chop Garlic:
I have heard people mention that they don’t buy fresh garlic because, “It’s a pain to chop”. But let me tell you a secret; you can do it in 5 easy steps!
- Pull off a single clove from the garlic bulb. Place on cutting board.
- Lay a knife blade flat on top of the clove. Using the palm of your hand, push down on the blade with enough strength to crack the skin.
- Peel the skin from the clove.
- Cut off the root ends.
- Use a gentle rocking motion to slice the cloves into several slices, or as many slices as your clove can generate.
Awesome, now you have minced garlic and can be used in these 50 Recipes for Garlic Lovers.
