Portobello Mushroom and Spinach Tartines with Roasted Garlic Spread image

You can now find roasted garlic cloves in jars at supermarkets, but it's very easy to make your own. Simply trim the tops of whole garlic bulbs to expose the cloves, set on a piece of foil, and drizzle with olive oil. Wrap tightly in foil, and bake 30 to 35 minutes at 400°F, or until garlic bulbs are soft. Cool, and store in the fridge up to 5 days. To use, squeeze roasted garlic from cloves.
