"I was searching for a roasted garlic recipe and all that I found had a base with mayo, and since I'm not fond of mayo I thought I would come up a version of my own. So if you love the taste of Roasted garlic and the flavor of creamy yogurt, you will love this spread. It is easy to make but you have to plan ahead with roasting the garlic, caramelizing the onions and draining the yogurt, but once all the prep is done the spread is well worth it the work. (please note that this recipe was modified and the sour cream removed producing a lighter recipe.)"
