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 also grates so many other things! hard cheeses, nutmeg, ginger, cinnamon and several other hard items that need grating.

I want one of these! I love garlic in pasta dishes. So delicious!

Janice September 20, 2010 at 3:50 pm

Ed September 20, 2010 at 3:53 pm

I love mincing garlic and making my own garlic bread! It always tastes so much more garlicky than store-bought or restaurant’s.

Lily @ Lily's Health Pad September 20, 2010 at 3:54 pm

I love garlic in EVERYTHING, but I love the extra pop it gives my veggie stir fries.

Alicia at Poise in Parma September 20, 2010 at 3:54 pm

that’s awesome! Love lots of garlic in my home made soups!

Sara September 20, 2010 at 3:59 pm

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 ;)

Lisa September 20, 2010 at 4:00 pm

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!

Meghan September 20, 2010 at 4:03 pm

Such a cool little kitchen tool! I use garlic in literally everything but I just sauted it with my shrimp for my fajitas!

Abbie H September 20, 2010 at 4:03 pm

Favorite use for garlic: Rubbed on top of french bread with some butter!

Carbzilla September 20, 2010 at 4:06 pm

Big hugs to Momma B! I love garlic in all my soups!

homecookedem September 20, 2010 at 4:07 pm

How cool is that! I love garlic on my vegetables. Especially in sauteed spinach!!!! :)

Tiffany September 20, 2010 at 4:10 pm

I love garlic in my pasta dishes!

candice September 20, 2010 at 4:13 pm

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 :)

balancejoyanddelicias September 20, 2010 at 4:13 pm

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.

Andrea September 20, 2010 at 4:13 pm

Garlic is must for mashed potatoes!

eatingmachine September 20, 2010 at 4:15 pm

i love garlic on lots of things-especially garlic bread!

sarah September 20, 2010 at 4:16 pm

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!

melissa September 20, 2010 at 4:17 pm

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 ;)

Lindsay September 20, 2010 at 4:24 pm

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!!

Neé Neé September 20, 2010 at 4:25 pm

Favorite use for garlic is hands down GARLIC BREAD with cheese please!

Neé Neé September 20, 2010 at 4:25 pm

I follow you on Facebook… :o)

GetHealthyWithHeather September 20, 2010 at 4:28 pm

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 :)

Caitlin September 20, 2010 at 4:34 pm

I add garlic to everything! But I think minced/grated garlic adds the best flavor to sauteed greens.

april September 20, 2010 at 4:37 pm

I love it in cabbage stir-fries!

kbwood September 20, 2010 at 4:40 pm

i loveee garlic on PIZZA!

Holly September 20, 2010 at 4:43 pm

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 :)

jenngirl September 20, 2010 at 4:50 pm

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 :)

Monica September 20, 2010 at 4:57 pm

garlic for garlic bread, yum yum yum (:

Jessica (electropositive) September 20, 2010 at 5:03 pm

That is so cute! Thank you Momma B!

I love lots of fresh garlic in guacamole!

Ibu September 20, 2010 at 5:15 pm

I use garlic in my pasta dishes and almost everything I cook that garlic can work for.

Lauren September 20, 2010 at 5:15 pm

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. :)

lisaou11 September 20, 2010 at 5:24 pm

I love me some garlicy shrimp scampi!

Allison September 20, 2010 at 5:36 pm

Fresh garlic bread! :)

Cassie September 20, 2010 at 5:41 pm

I love garlic in anything, but one of my very favorites is sautéed with green beans!

Kelly @Coconuts & Freckles September 20, 2010 at 5:45 pm

Ooh…this sounds perfect! Love garlic in homemade garlic bread!

Jessica September 20, 2010 at 5:49 pm

I use garlic on everything! My boyfriend is long distance so I don’t have to worry about scaring anyone away…muwhahah I LOVE IT :)

thedelicateplace September 20, 2010 at 5:52 pm

fave use of garlic is in pesto! mmmmm

Alli September 20, 2010 at 5:53 pm

sauteed with kale and onions !

Mary (What's Cookin' with Mary) September 20, 2010 at 6:00 pm

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!

Ashley S September 20, 2010 at 6:02 pm

My fave use for garlic is tossing with chopped potatoes and EVOO and roasting in the oven!

julie September 20, 2010 at 6:02 pm

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

julie September 20, 2010 at 6:03 pm

you KNOW i already facebook love you.

erica September 20, 2010 at 6:27 pm

roasted whole in the oven and then squeezed out and spread on baguette! SO GOOD

crunchygranolagal September 20, 2010 at 6:31 pm

i loooove roasted garlic in any sort of chicken or fish marinate. has to be ROASTED, though, and it’s fabulous.

simplyshaka September 20, 2010 at 6:36 pm

I didnt even know garlic graters existed–how fun!!!

Jessie September 20, 2010 at 6:53 pm

although it doesn’t require a grater, my favorite use for garlic is roasted and spread on warm bread! mmm

Brandi G September 20, 2010 at 6:58 pm

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!

Tristan September 20, 2010 at 7:02 pm

I love to use garlic in my homemade salsa. My hands forever smell of fresh garlic….
