  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   5      whole         garlic heads
   2                    bacon slices -- diced
   1      cup           diced onion
   1      cup           diced carrot
   2      cloves        garlic -- minced
   6      cups          diced baking potato -- (2 pounds)
   4      cups          low-salt chicken broth
     1/2  teaspoon      salt
     1/4  teaspoon      pepper
   1                    bay leaf
   1      cup           2% low-fat milk
     1/4  cup           chopped fresh parsley

Remove white papery skin from each garlic head (do not peel or separate cloves). Wrap each head separately in aluminum foil. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour; let cool for 10 minutes. Separate cloves, and squeeze to extract 1/4 cup of garlic pulp; discard the skins.

Cook bacon in a large saucepan over medium-high heat until crisp. Add onion, carrot, and minced garlic, and saute 5 minutes. Add potato, broth, salt, pepper, and bay leaf; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 20 minutes or until potato is tender; remove bay leaf.

Combine garlic pulp and 2 cups  potato mixture in a blender or food processor, and process until smooth. Return puree to pan; stir in milk, and cook over low heat until thoroughly heated. Remove from heat, and stir in chopped parsley. Yield: 7 servings (serving size: 1 cup).
