Garlicky Bread Crumbs
Add a sprinkle of flavor to pasta dishes, salads, and more. It’s a good way to use up stale bread, including the heels. Makes about 1 1/2 cups or 6 servings. Sorry that I can’t show that in the servings field below, but it’s fine if you print the recipe.

Instructions
  1. Heat oven or toaster oven to 350°.F. Fit your food processor with the stainless-steel blade, turn the motor on high, and drop in garlic. Process until the garlic stops bouncing around. Tear bread into bite-sized pieces and add to the food processor. Add walnuts too. Pulse several times until you have large bread crumbs and roughly chopped walnuts. Sprinkle with nutritional yeast and pulse once, then add olive oil and pulse again a few times.
  2. Pour bread crumbs into a medium sized baking pan, about 7 x 11 inches, and bake for 5 minutes. Stir and bake for 3 more minutes, until well toasted and fragrant.
  3. To serve, sprinkle Garlicky Bread Crumbs over pasta dishes, tacos, salads, and whatever you want. Keeps uncovered for an hour or two or frozen (to keep it crispy) for a month.
