 Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  2                    Garlic bulbs -- whole
 12       oz           Brie cheese -- room temperature
                       Cocktail bread, crisp bread,
                       French bread -- sliced 1/2"
                       -thick
  6       oz           Jar roasted red peppers
                       -well drained -- cut into
                       -small -- narrow strips

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.  Remove some of the outer layers from garlic, but
leave bulbs intact.  Place on a baking sheet and bake for about 40-50 minutes
or until cloves are soft. Test with a toothpick or skewer. To serve, gently
separate the cloves and arrange on a serving plate. Place the Brie on a larger
plate, surrounded by the
bread of your choice. Place red pepper strips in a small bowl and provide a
small fork. Each guest should spread Brie on a piece of bread with a spreading
knife, squeeze a garlic clove directly on to it, then top it with a strip or
two of red pepper. You might prepare a few at first as examples.
