Recipe - Ricotta-Roast Garlic Spread

1 Head garlic; large, (not 1
clove)
1 cup Nonfat ricotta cheese
One fourth teaspoon Black pepper

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Wrap garlic in aluminum foil and roast for 1
hour. Unwrap garlic. When it is cool enough to handle, peel away as much of
the outer papery layers of skin as possible. Use a sharp knife to cut the
entire head in half, crosswise (across the middle). Hold each half over the
work bowl of a food processor and squeeze out as much garlic as possible.
Add cheese and pepper, and puree. Serve with crisp crackers such as melba
toast or RyeKrisp.

Makes 1 cup.
