Garlic has numerous health benefits. It's a natural antioxidant. I believe my cooking it in nearly everything is largely responsible for my excellent immunity. Everyone around me will generally go through at least one cold each year, I haven't had one in at least 25 years.

In southern cooking onions, celery and green pepper (bell pepper) are known as the "holy trinity", a base for all great dishes but I have my own trinity: garlic, onions and mushrooms
