Title: Winter Pistou

1/2 C soft white bread crumbs
1 1/2 C fresh parsley
1/2 C fresh basil leaves
2 T tomato paste
1/4 C olive oil
3 - large cloves garlic, minced
1/2 t salt

Preheat the oven to 350° F. Spread the bread crumbs in a single layer on a light-colored baking sheet (a dark surface tends to overbrown them). Bake for 2-3 minutes or until lightly toasted, stirring once. Set aside to cool slightly.

Combine the bread crumbs and all the remaining ingredients in a food processor fitted with the metal blade or in a blender; process or blend until a smooth paste is formed.
