Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 whole Garlic bulbs
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 8 ounces Cream cheese
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons Fresh chives
- 1 tablespoon Fresh dill
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Slice the tops off the garlic bulbs, exposing the cloves. Drizzle the bulbs with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and wrap them tightly in aluminum foil.
Place the wrapped garlic bulbs on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the cloves are golden and tender.
Remove the garlic from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes. Squeeze the roasted garlic cloves out of their skins into a small bowl and mash them with a fork until smooth.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise. Mix until smooth and well-blended.
Add the mashed roasted garlic, fresh parsley, chives, dill, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Mix thoroughly to combine all flavors.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed, adding more salt, pepper, or lemon juice to your preference.
Transfer the dip to a serving bowl, cover, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve the dip with crackers, sliced vegetables, or crusty bread. Enjoy!
