Total time: 10 min

Description

Note: The garlic can be increased based on your tastes. We started with three teaspoons (1 tablespoon) as noted in the original recipe we adapted but it seemed like a bit too much garlic. So our version calls for only two teaspoons, but feel free to adjust based on your own tastes!
