Roasted Garlic And Almond Spread

Ok….. college life can very fun, and you cannot disagree with that. Even more if you are living on-campus, you feel the joy of being independent and out of control from your parent. But don’t you think that living outside alone can be sometimes boring too?? One of the stuff you get bored to is the food. I’m sure that if you are staying on-campus you will be thinking of what to eat every time there is a break time. Here is a recipe I found on the web that you can try out. It’s a recipe of a spread that you can eat with breads. It’s not a very complicated recipe and I’m sure almost everyone can make it.
