i idly (that looks incorrect to me, but apparently it's not) turned on the tv while i was making some dinner (fresh pesto over whole wheat pasta, with some chicken and salad) and i came across football. i don't care much one way or the other about football; i don't keep track but when i do bother rooting for anyone i cheer for the patriots.

yeah, fresh pesto involves:

basil
garlic
walnuts or pine nuts
parmesan cheese
and olive oil

my guess would be that your basil paste is probably basil and olive oil...so you could probably squeeze some into a food processor, add some walnuts (i use a handful of walnuts for a couple of cups of fresh basil), some parmesan cheese (a couple of shakes), and 2 or 3 little garlic sections....and mix it all together, streaming in additional olive oil til it's at the consistency you want. you could probably find a much more precise recipe if you google it, but that's the gist.
