Ingredients (serves 4):
- 2 large garlic bulbs
- 2 large onions
- 4 oz goat cheese
- 1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Cooking Tips:
- Use a sharp knife to cut the garlic and onions into thin slices.

Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F.

3. While the garlic is roasting, slice the onions into thin rounds. Place the onion slices on a baking sheet and drizzle with the remaining olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
4. Once the garlic is done roasting, remove it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Squeeze the roasted garlic cloves out of their skins and set them aside.
5. Add the roasted garlic to the baking sheet with the onions and toss to combine. Return the baking sheet to the oven and roast for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the onions are soft and caramelized.
6. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the onions and garlic cool for a few minutes. Crumble the goat cheese over the top of the vegetables and sprinkle with fresh thyme leaves.
7. Serve the Roasted Garlic and Onion with Goat Cheese and Thyme warm or at room temperature.
