How To Make roasted garlic & tomato spread

Step 1

Remove papery outer skin from garlic (do not peel or separate cloves). Cut tops off of bulbs; brush each with 1/2 tsp. oil. Wrap each bulb in heavy duty foil.

Step 2

Place wrapped garlic and tomatoes (unwrapped) in a foil-lined 9-in square baking pan. Brush tomatoes with remaining oil.
Step 3

Bake at 425 degrees for 30-35 minutes or until garlic is softened. Cool for 10-15 minutes.
Step 4

Squeeze garlic into a small bowl. Drain any liquid from tomatoes; chop and add to garlic.
Step 5

Stir in the cream cheese, Italian seasoning and salt. Serve with your favorite crackers or snack breads.
