It’s The Little Things: Crushed Garlic

All right, I hate to keep repeating myself. But, it needs to be said again. “I am lazy.” Right now I am writing this post. I should be vacuuming. Or doing laundry. Enough said.

And I love to cook. Enter all-ready-crushed-and-pureed-for-you garlic.

I buy my garlic in this handy dandy little case. It comes in servings of 20. Each serving is one clove of garlic. It is kept frozen. I also sometimes purchase minced garlic in the jars. You can find the jars in the spice aisle of most grocery stores.

The garlic is in tiny little pockets all of its own. Besides making cooking easier, this is frankly adorable. And cooking and adorable go together like….hmmm. Well. Not at all. Movin’ along.

I use this in any recipe that calls for garlic. I buy mine at a little specialty food store near my house. It is in the frozen vegetable aisle. It is inexpensive. It is wonderful.

It’s the little things: not smelling like garlic. Not having to chop garlic = Less work = Happy lazy girl.

Do you chop your own garlic? Or do you use prechopped like me? Do tell!
