this giveaway is now closed. thanks for entering!
i wanted to make the title “G cubed” but i am not sure everyone would have caught on. i have to realize that not everyone is a word geek like me ;)
i have nothing fabulous to report today.
i had pb&j protein oatmeal for breakfast, leftovers for lunch, a chocolate vitatop for a snack, my workout is still in the works and dinner tonight will be taco soup, which is currently cooking in the crock pot.
see? my whole day, summed up in one sentence.
instead of stretching that out into a long, drawn out mess.. how about a giveaway?
remember the ceramic grater i got at the fair last week?
it grates garlic with ease..
it also grates so many other things! hard cheeses, nutmeg, ginger, cinnamon and several other hard items that need grating.
well, thanks to momma b, i have an extra grater set.. and one of YOU is going to win it!
it comes with a ceramic grater, a garlic peeler and the brush used to get the grated goods off the grater.

Oh I definitely need this in my life – shrimp scampi!
I want one of these! I love garlic in pasta dishes. So delicious!
I luv garlic in pasta dishes, esp. spagetti!!!
Commented on FB!
I love mincing garlic and making my own garlic bread! It always tastes so much more garlicky than store-bought or restaurant’s.
I love garlic in EVERYTHING, but I love the extra pop it gives my veggie stir fries.
that’s awesome! Love lots of garlic in my home made soups!
Oh man I love garlic so much it’s hard to choose – favorite would be straight up on homemade garlic bread! With enough garlic to make people cringe ;)
Oooh! I’ve been wanting one of those forever! They are so cool. I use garlic for everything but my favorite is in our guacamole!
Such a cool little kitchen tool! I use garlic in literally everything but I just sauted it with my shrimp for my fajitas!
Favorite use for garlic: Rubbed on top of french bread with some butter!
Big hugs to Momma B! I love garlic in all my soups!
How cool is that! I love garlic on my vegetables. Especially in sauteed spinach!!!! :)
I love garlic in my pasta dishes!
I saw these at the fair and Loved them.. but couldn’t talk the mr. into realizing its a “need” & not a want.. considering the fact that I cook with garlic almost EVERYDAY! & I still have to hand chop it all.. I don’t even have a press.. So it would come in handy when I make my favorite chicken adobo.. I’m new to the food blog world and have been a fan of meals&moves on fb since last week :)
oh. this is so cool… I eat a lot of garlic ALL the time. i don’t know why, but love the flavor! Favorite way to use it: adding it to everything basically :D hahaha…. I know, i know, that’s not a valid answer so here’s the real one: added grated garlic to veggie stir-fries.
Garlic is must for mashed potatoes!
i love garlic on lots of things-especially garlic bread!
i love to roast whole heads of garlic to spread on crusty bread, and also rubbing a clove all over a salad bowl before the salad goes in and gets tossed – gives just the slightest hint of garlic flavor and is not as overpowering as when you include it in the actual dressing. love those graters – so cute!
oooohhhhh this is so cute i never saw one like this!
i would have to go with pasta spinach garlic and olive oil
with italian bread and a stick of butter ;)
This is going to sound way too simple, but I LOVE Garlic Cheese Toast! It goes so well with any Italian dish. It would be much easier to make with a grater!!
Favorite use for garlic is hands down GARLIC BREAD with cheese please!
I follow you on Facebook… :o)
Garlic is a must have in homemade hummus! Plus it has to be grated so this would be perfecto! I think you’ll like my most recent post… Spinach and artichoke hummus :)
I add garlic to everything! But I think minced/grated garlic adds the best flavor to sauteed greens.
I love it in cabbage stir-fries!
i loveee garlic on PIZZA!
Ahh- that’s a HARD one- my favorite way to use garlic?! I use it in nearly EVERYTHING…and I always triple how much is called for :D I would say the best way is in pasta- not only cooking in the sauce, but also added to the mix before eating :)
My favorite way to use garlic is sauteeing some in oil prior to a huge veggie stir fry. I LOVE the smell almost as much as the taste :)
garlic for garlic bread, yum yum yum (:
That is so cute! Thank you Momma B!
I love lots of fresh garlic in guacamole!
I use garlic in my pasta dishes and almost everything I cook that garlic can work for.
What a great tool! My favorite use for garlic is in pasta sauces. I always add a tad to jarred sauce to give it that homemade feel. :)
I love me some garlicy shrimp scampi!
Fresh garlic bread! :)
I love garlic in anything, but one of my very favorites is sautéed with green beans!

I have to tell you… When I read the title of this post my heart did a little pitter patter. Nope, not even joking here! :D Oh how I would love to win this little gadget!! And to be totally honest, I was so excited I haven’t even read the post yet bc I just had to type this out … lol.
LOVE all things garlic – sorry Averie ;) – roasted, sauted, in a marinade, in a home made salad dressing, soup n stews, pizza, in my eggs at breakfast (thank goodness Brian loves it as much as I do !)… Would have to say that one of my most favorite ways to have garlic is roasted (w. olive oil, salt and pepper, then mashed) and schmeared on a peice of freshly baked bread that has been sliced and toasted. Not for the faint of heart!
My fave use for garlic is tossing with chopped potatoes and EVOO and roasting in the oven!
mama b likes me best so obviously i should win.
hahahahaha :) anyways my favorite way to use garlic is just like everything and anything. i actually LOVE eating the cloves that have been sitting in my homemade sauce. when they get all tomatoey and sauteey <3mmmmm garlicky
you KNOW i already facebook love you.
roasted whole in the oven and then squeezed out and spread on baguette! SO GOOD
i loooove roasted garlic in any sort of chicken or fish marinate. has to be ROASTED, though, and it’s fabulous.
I didnt even know garlic graters existed–how fun!!!
although it doesn’t require a grater, my favorite use for garlic is roasted and spread on warm bread! mmm
Ahhhh, garlic! A staple in my home. What DON’T we use garlic for…sauteing veggies, jazz up jarred spaghetti sauce, put it in foil packets with veggies on the grill, marinades…my favorite is probably rubbing a whole clove on toasted bread to make quick garlic bread!
I love to use garlic in my homemade salsa. My hands forever smell of fresh garlic….
My favorite use of garlic is LARGE quantities of it.. When a recipe calls for one clove umm i put in two… I especially love garlic in mac n cheese, homemade of course!
SUCH a beautiful grater! I love it. You would probably be totally grossed out if I said my favorite way to eat garlic is alone….. soooo I’m going to say Garlic Bread. I mean, who doesn’t love greasy, crunchy garlic bread? mmmm…. :D
garlic with pasta, a little bit o’ butta & some fresh grated parm. holy yum!
Garlic is a must in my beloved Cashew Ginger Tofu recipe!
In pasta sauce, of course!

garlic hummus. or garlic bread. or garlic….on just about anything. =)
I use garlic on fish, it really brings out the flavor.
I have to admit, in my previous life I cheated on my beloved fresh garlic.
I was young, dinner needed to be cooked and the bottled garlic called to me.
After a few counseling sessions and my heart-felt apology, the bulb and I are stronger than ever.
We make it a point to meet at least 2-3 times a week and make beautiful stir-frys, pasta and even delicious egg dishes together.
We use fresh garlic in EVERYTHING! My little kids love garlic pasta, garlic mini meatballs, needless to say lots of tooth brushing in our house!
I LOVE garlic! I do not think you can go wrong by adding garlic to most any dish you make….but my favorite is grilled Firecracker shrimp!
OMG- what don’t I love garlic in?? I love it in my homemade veggie burgers! So very good. I seriously put minced garlic in just about everything that calls for garlic (or doesn’t call for it). Vampires beware!!!
:)
Um I think I use garlic in 90% of my meals, but I’m going to have to say my simple favorite is garlic bread. Yum!
HUMMUS! I double the garlic in most hummus recipes. It’s essentially an excuse for me to eat excessive amounts of garlic and pita bread. Not for the faint of heart!
And of course I’m a fan of your Facebook page. I’d be lost without your daily food holidays!
My husband pokes fun because I manage to work garlic into most of our dinners. Garlic sizzling in oil or butter my favorite smell! I love to roast a whole pod and smear it on naan. YUM.
I love garlic in bruschetta. Mmm.
Sauteed onions, zucchini, mushrooms, and red peppers in lots of olive oil and GARLIC is my favorite! Top with a little parm (and tabasco) and yum!! I eat it at any time of day!
I really love to slow roast garlic in the oven then spread it on bread. delicious!
Favorite use for garlic? In pretty much EVERY dinner I make! I especially like it in stir frys and it makes the house smell great with a bit of onions and olive oil frying up in a pan. That garlic scraper set would be so fun to work with! Thanks for offering the giveaway. :)
I use garlic in almost everything. I would say my favorite use is in pesto though.
Cool giveway!
I use garlic in pretty much everything from salsas and pasta sauces to potatoes and casseroles. My most favorite thing is to use chopped garlic, olive oil, salt, pepper and myzithra cheese over whole wheat pasta. Soooo good.
Big Fat Garlic Burgers, I mean so garlic-eeee even bloggers stay away. Don’t forget to add bacon.
I love whole baked garlic in the oven then pairing it with some brie and spreading over a great baguette.
I love garlic on everything! I’d literally bath in it if it was socially acceptable to smell like that. But if I had to pick my favorite it would be grated on top of broccoli before roasting it.
My favorite way to eat garlic is actually roasted. Take a whole head, drizzle with EVOO & sea salt then pop into the oven in some tin foil for an hour. Mmm. Spreads like butter…
I follow your blog and on Facebook.

I am now a fan on Facebook!!!
My very favorite would have to be in stir fry, I love the flavor infecting everything else in the wok!
One of my favorite quick go-to meals is noodles with olive oil, garlic, and parmesan. I also love to bake tortilla chips with garlic and rosemeary. Mmmmmm!

ok after seeing you use this on your chicken and pasta post, i MUST have one!
my fav way to use garlic is on garlic bread! Plain old delish garlic bread… but I also use it in EVERYTHING else.
xo!
Garlic is a gift from GOD! It is amazing in just about anything. For this one, I will say scrambled eggs! My boyfriend doesn’t like it in eggs cause “It’s not a breakfast flavor”. So we compromise. Every other egg day get’s garlic. Sauteed with some mushrooms and bell peppers. It is a great way to start the morning. And then the house has the yummy scent of garlic all day!
I will “Like” meals and moves on Facebook ALL DAY LONG!
I love using garlic in stirfrys!!
I like making garlic parmesan fries with regular or sweet potatoes. So good!
Oh, man. I love to bake garlic and then spread it on french bread with brie. There is this raspberry chili sauce that my aunt always buys (no idea what it’s called or where to get it- she brings it like magic) that you can spread on top of everything and it just brings the garlic to life.
Score! So glad I chose tonight to catch up on my blogroll or I woulda missed this giveaway, and hated myself for it! Fave uses for garlic: boosting my immune system (aka now, fighting a cold, and adding it to everything)…slassssh garlicy chicken/turkey breast. And homemade tomato sauce. Seriously. Love garlic.
