Recipes that use garlic
We assembled this garlic recipe collection as an inspiration to incorporate more of this flavorful allium into your meals. Whether you are sautéing garlic at the beginning of a recipe or juicing it into apple juice, you'll find tasty options that celebrate the great flavors garlic can bring.Boldly flavored garlic is one of my favorite ingredients to add depth and complexity to so many savory dishes.

Roasting an entire bulb of garlic and spreading the buttery clove on a slice of toasted sourdough is an incredibly delicious snack.

I hope you're feeling better! I hate that you've been so sick. I'm glad you got to see your dad for a minute though with precaution. 😉
Looks like you've been downing lots of good sick fighting nutrients with those garlic juices! They are beautiful too! I need to try that cashew béchamel. Dang that looks good!
Feel better soon!
Kristina Sloggett says
I am well taken care of over here - Jason is keeping me in fresh juice 🙂 still not great, I am heading to see my doc this afternoon... everyone seems to think this is now pneumonia.
I wish you could come over for something topped with cashew bechamel. we really need to work on this "next door neighbor" thing 😉
Heather @ Better With Veggies says
I love your roundup of recipes - and those quinoa meatball marinara sandwiches are awesome!! I've made so many of your recipes, I'm always surprised when I see so many I haven't tried yet. Love you!! And feel better!!
Kristina Sloggett says
those quinoa meatballs are a favorite here too, so glad you like them - I think at this point you may have made them more than me? 🙂
The Peace Patch says
oh squealingly yumful! Count me in the Garlic Fan Club...I don't think I could ever give it up. Thanks for all the recipe links...your ‘Meat’ball Marinara Sandwiches look especially delicious!
Kristina Sloggett says
we LOVE garlic here too - glad to meet another fan!
Lisa says
Great list of recipes! Will definitely be trying some of these because I am obsessed with garlic. Also, I've been adding nuts (pistachios and cashews) to everything I can. Love the combination of flavors.
Kristina Sloggett says
cashews are one of my favorites, I use them a lot and they have such great flavor. pistachios are SO GOOD too, glad to hear you're enjoying them more!
Eileen says
A definite yes to garlic in all its forms. 🙂 Hope you're feeling better soon!
Kristina Sloggett says
thanks Eileen - so far the garlic doesn't seem to be helping, but I'm not giving up! 😉
Emma says
Another garlic fan here! I think the fingers on my left hand permanently smell of garlic from mincing it (I should probably get a press...) These recipes look fab, although I'm not sure I'm brave enough to try garlic in a juice...!
Kristina Sloggett says
I have a garlic press, I still end up mincing it myself too. something about smashing it with a knife, too... 😉
Laura @ Sprint 2 the Table says
I hope you're feeling better soon!! I guess there's something going around Portland. My sister called Saturday morning so sick she couldn't get out of bed without puking. Stay hydrated!! Xoxo
Kristina Sloggett says
there definitely IS something in the Portland air... too bad, because it is SO STINKIN NICE right now - perfect 87-90 degrees out there! it better last until I feel better...
XXO
Heather (Where's the Beach) says
I hate that you've been so sick. Not fun at all - especially during the summer! We go through a LOT of garlic at our house. Good thing we both love it 😉
Kristina Sloggett says
that's what I always say too - I'm glad (my!) Jason loves garlic as much as me! 🙂
Miz says
GARLIC APPLE JUICE?
color me intrigued....
xoxo
Kristina Sloggett says
it's surprisingly good...
Abby says
First of all, I hope you're feeling better. With how much you've been stretching yourself out, I suppose it's not a surprise that it all caught up with you. Still...ugh.
Second, I LOVE garlic. Always have, always will. My mom used to joke that when I was little, you could open up the door to my room and garlic would flood out. No matter what I eat, it sticks with me for days. With that said,
I will take one of the baby bella sandwiches above to go, please and thank you 🙂
Kristina Sloggett says
I know... this has been a sign that I need to s l o w d o w n... especially if my doc tells me today that it IS pneumonia like everyone thinks... *sigh*
I wish I could send a sandwich over right now! XO
Abby says
I wish I could send myself over to you right now! I would totally be the best nurse...well, not the best, but laughter is the best medicine 😉 Hang in there!
