Instructions

ROAST THE GARLIC:

Preheat your oven to 400℉ or 200℃.
Place 6 to 8 cloves of garlic on a sheet of foil. Drizzle with a little oil and season with a pinch of salt and some freshly ground black pepper. Fold and crimp foil to form a pouch. Place on a rimmed baking sheet and roast for 25 to 30 minutes.
Once roasted, and safe to handle, remove the skin. Using a fork, mash the roasted garlic cloves on a plate or cutting board.

MAKE THE DRESSING:

To a bowl, measure and add mayonnaise, greek yogurt, parmesan cheese, the smashed garlic, kosher salt, lots of freshly ground black pepper and lemon juice. Stir well and combine.
Thin the dressing out with either milk or water to desired consistency. I usually use 4 to 6 tablespoons of milk.
