Have you ever tasted Garlic Bundle appetizers? Have you ever put something in your mouth and knew right then and there that you were going to gain two hundred pounds in the next few seconds? Have you ever refused garlic because you were worried about your breath afterwards? I haven't, though maybe I should. I usually just tell French Husband, "Eat those," as I point to the garlic whatever, "because I did, and two garlic breaths are better than one."
Dinner:
Garlic Bundles with a green salad,
roasted green beans and a bottle of wine.
I called Sacha and French Husband downstairs.
Garlic Bundles
- 3 large heads of garlic, separated the cloves, use only the chubby ones.
- 1/2 package of phyllo dough
- 1 cup butter, melted
- 1/2 cup finely chopped walnuts
- 2 cups dried bread crumbs.
- 3 artichoke hearts optional
How to make Garlic Bundles
Peel garlic, lick your fingers, imagine your taste buds getting silly.Wash your hands,
Preheat oven to 350 F.
Cut the phyllo dough into three fingers wide strips.
Brush with melted butter, do not be stingy.
Place a chubby clove of garlic at one end.
Sprinkle finely chopped roasted walnuts along length of strip.
Roll up garlic clove and walnuts in strip, tucking in side edges as you roll.
Your fingers will be covered with happiness,
Dare not to lick.
Brush bundle with more generous liquid gold (butter).
Roll the Garlic Bundle in bread crumbs.
Repeat with remaining phyllo strips, one bundle after another.
Place bundles on a flat baking sheet.
Bake 20 minute or until golden.
For added pleasure, chop a few artichokes into the roasted walnuts.
Happy garlic breath to you!

After note:
I do not have a photo of the bundles, nor dinner. Taking photos at night does not show my good side.
