Salad without garlic
24 salads from the library, and we checked every ingredient in every one of them before it went on this list.
336 of the 1,124 recipes in this library name garlic somewhere.
One thing worth knowing at the store: canned vegetables are allowed to contain garlic even when a recipe never asks for it, so we keep recipes built on those cans off this list.
