olive oil
1pack cream cheese
1 garlic bulb sliced in half
8-10 assorted tomatoes halved

Balsamic glaze ( or vinegar if you don't have glaze)
Chopped chives for garnish
Place the tomatoes and halved garlic bulb on an oven tray or dish, drizzle with olive oil season and roast in a hot oven til the tomatoes are caramelised and the garlic softened 15- 20 mins. Set aside to cool. Thinly slice the ciabatta brush both sides with a little olive oil, season lightly and place in a hot oven 10 mins it so til golden and crisp, Then set aside to cool.
In a bowl squeeze the roast garlic out of the bulb, add a tub of cream cheese season with salt and pepper and a little of the olive oil and blitz til smooth and creamy .
