Garlic, garlic, garlic!!!

My mouth is pretty much on fire, and I'm sure the rest of my family is the same. Not a complaint from them, though! We are garlic lovers in this house. If you aren't a fan of strong garlic flavour.. this blog post is not for you. If you, like us, cannot get enough garlic... dig in to this super easy and delicious meal!

I made a garlicky pasta (the original is from How it all Vegan, but I changed it a bit) and served it with a caesar-esque salad using this creamy garlic dressing.



Garlicky Pasta

1 box spaghetti
2 tbsp olive oil
15 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup fresh parsley, minced
1 tsp chopped red chilies
1 1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
4 tbsp flax oil
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese

Cook the spaghetti noodles according to package directions.

Cook the minced garlic, minced parsley, chopped red chilies, salt and pepper in the olive oil until tender. Set aside.

Once the noodles are cooked, toss with the olive oil/garlic mixture, the flax oil and the parmesan cheese. Serve immediately.

  1. Sounds awesome! We love love love garlic. Great minds must think alike because tonight I'm experimenting with spaghetti squash in garlicky garlic infused olive oil.

  2. Christine - that is too funny. Garlic is one of the five foods I couldn't live without. Yum. Ironically enough, the pasta was less garlicky than the dressing. Cooked vs Raw. ;)
