Garlic Butter Burger- Phase 3

Garlic is good for the soul. 

I am sure of it. 

I use copious amounts in a lot of my cooking. I will never have to worry about vampires.

Garlic is also healthy and aids in digestion. It is super cheap to buy fresh- a bulb of garlic costs around 50 cents. That bulb can flavor a dozen dishes.

I have spoken before about roasting a few heads and keep thing them in the fridge to use in all types of dishes and sauces.

For this dish, you can will use some of that roasted garlic to make the compound butter.

This works with beef burgers, turkey burgers, chicken burgers... your choice.

1/2 cup Vegan Butter (recipe HERE)
2 T roasted garlic
2 fresh garlic cloves, finely minced
Pinch of salt
1/4 tsp black pepper

(Make sure the butter is set up- you want it to be firm)

Mix everything together in a small bowl. Scoop into a jar with a lid, and keep in fridge.
