Pesto Bread Crumbs You will need: 1 cup dry bread crumbs 2 large cloves garlic, minced 1/3 cup Parmesan Cheese 3 tablespoons roasted pine nuts 1 1/2 cups loosely packed fresh basil 1/4 tsp. salt 1/4 tsp. pepper Blend all ingredients in a food processor or blender, just until combined. Use on cooked vegetables, eggs, to top casserole or to sprinkle over salads or fresh tomatoes. Roasted Garlic You will need: 4 heads whole garlic 1/4 cup oil Crusty Bread Slice off the top tip of each head of garlic with a sharp knife. Arrange in a shallow baking dish. Drizzle with oil. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until garlic cloves are soft and tender when squeezed. Be careful not to burn garlic. Remove from oven and arrange baked heads with their oil on a plate. When garlic cools, dip the bread in the oil and squeeze out the baked pulp from the individual garlic cloves onto bread to eat while warm. Note: This is one head per person. You may even roast one at a time just for yourself!
