Cancer Fighting Foods: Garlic New Potatoes

<p>
<em>Serves 4<br />
</em>The garlic in these new potatoes inhibits the formation of nitrosamines–cancer-causing compounds that form during the digestive process.</p>
<ul>
<li>8 new potatoes, washed</li>
<li>Olive oil</li>
<li>8 or more cloves garlic</li>
<li>Fresh or dried rosemary</li>
<li>Salt and pepper</li>
</ul>
<ol>
<li>Preheat the oven to 400°. Place the potatoes on a piece of foil large enough to wrap around the potatoes.</li>
<li>Drizzle the potatoes with the oil. With a garlic press, squeeze at least 1 clove of garlic over each potato.</li>
<li>Sprinkle the potatoes with the rosemary and salt and pepper to taste. Turn the potatoes over several times, so they are well covered with the mixture.</li>
<li>Wrap the foil around the potatoes, place the packet on a baking sheet and bake for 1 hour.</li>
</ol>
