Ingredients
Roasted Garlic:
- 2 garlic heads
- 1 tablespoon olive oil

Dip:
- ½ cup jalapenos (drained, 60 grams)
- ½ cup cream cheese (120 grams)
- 3 tablespoons Greek yogurt

Instructions
Roasting the garlic:
- Cut about a third of the garlic top off, leaving the cloves exposed a bit. Peel off some of the outer skin.
- Place each garlic head onto a sheet of aluminum foil.
- Drizzle them with olive oil.
- Season with salt, pepper and sweet paprika (optional).
- Wrap them in the foil and bake at 360°F/180°C for 30 minutes or until soft.
- Let the garlic cool off before peeling it. It will come out easily, with minimum effort.
Making the dip:
- In a food processor, combine the roasted garlic cloves with jalapenos, cream cheese, Greek yogurt and fresh parsley. Pulse until smooth.
- Serve right away.
Notes
- Use fresh flat-leaf parsley. If you don’t have it or if you prefer cilantro, you can use it too.
- The amount of jalapenos can be adjusted to your liking.
