Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
-
Leaving the head of garlic whole, cut off 1/4 to 1/2 inch of the top of head, exposing the individual cloves of garlic. Leave the peel on.
-
Place the garlic head cut side up onto a sheet of foil. Drizzle one Tsp. of olive oil over the cut side of the garlic head. Fold foil up around the garlic and pinch to seal to make a packet.
-
Bake at 400°F for 30-35 minutes, or until the cloves feel soft when pressed.
-
Allow the garlic to cool slightly to the touch. Squeeze the roasted garlic cloves out of their skins into a small bowl and mash with a fork to make a paste.
-
In a large sauté pan, add remaining olive oil and a generous amount of cooking spray over medium high heat. Add the onions and sauté until just starting to caramelize.
-
Add the roasted garlic paste and stir until the onions are coated. Add the spinach and sauté until the spinach is wilted and coated with the garlic and onions.
-
Season with salt and pepper.
