Time: 1 hrs

Ingredients

  • 4 large tomatoes or 2 lbs roma tomatoes
  • 1 head garlic
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil

  • 1 Slice tomatoes in half. Slice top 1/2 inch off of garlic to expose cloves. Arrange garlic and tomatoes (cut side up) on foil-lined baking dish. Drizzle olive oil over garlic. (This will keep garlic from drying out and getting bitter.) Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
