   1 1/2  cups          nonfat plain yogurt -- strained overnight
   1      head          garlic
   1      tablespoon    fresh parsley -- chopped
     1/4  teaspoon      ground black pepper
     1/4  teaspoon      salt

Wrap the garlic head in aluminum foil and bake in a preheated 375F oven for 35
minutes. Remove the foil and press the baked garlic until all the flesh
squeezes out. You should have 1 heaping tablespoon of puree.

Blend the garlic, yogurt and parsley, pepper and salt.

CAUTION: If you overstir strained yogurt, it will become thin.
