See Spiced Pecans recipe.

6 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
6 to 10 large garlic cloves, unpeeled (you decide how “garlicky” you want it to be)
2 Tablespoons honey
2 Tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 Tablespoon Dijon mustard
blue cheese, crumbled to taste

Preheat 350F. Toss oil with garlic in small baking dish. Cover dish tightly with foil. Bake until garlic is golden and tender, about 45 minutes. Cool. Squeeze garlic from skins. Reserve oil. Transfer roasted garlic to processor. Add honey, vinegar, and mustard and blend well. Add reserved oil. Season with salt and pepper. Blend until combined. Toss lettuce with enough dressing to coat. Dress with blue cheese and spiced pecans.
