  2. Next add your potatoes and heads of garlic to foil and toss wtih ⅛ cup olive oil.
  3. Place into preheated oven and cook for 25-35 minutes, tossing every 15, until desired texture is reached (I prefer on the longer end, so 35 does it for me).
  4. In a large bowl add your 6 cups of spinach, and roasted potatoes.
  5. Add your Roasted Garlic and Mustard dressing (see below) and toss. Salt and Pepper to taste, serve warm.
Dressing
  1. Carefully handling your roasted heads of garlic, squeeze until garlic comes out of pockets (see photo) and place into a small bowl
