2
1/2 tbsp minced fresh chives

1
18-ounce package hearts of romaine (about 3), coarsely torn

Directions
2.
Preheat oven to 325°F. Slice top 1/2 inch from each head of garlic. Place each, cut side up, on large square of foil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper; drizzle with oil. Enclose each in foil. Roast packets directly on oven rack until garlic is tender, about 1 hour 10 minutes. Carefully open foil; cool.
3.
Squeeze garlic into medium bowl; mash. Whisk in remaining ingredients. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover; chill.)
5.
Combine vegetables in large bowl. Add dressing; toss. Season with more salt and pepper, if desired.
