The bright flavor of garlic scapes gives this Garlic Scape Pesto Pasta a wonderful twist on traditional pesto pasta, making it a one-of-a-kind and tasty dish. The garlic scape pesto tastes fresh and tangy, and it goes well with the pasta to make a filling meal that is full of flavor.

Ingredients: 200g pasta of your choice. 1 cup garlic scapes, chopped. 1/2 cup fresh basil leaves. 1/4 cup pine nuts. 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese. 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil. Salt and pepper to taste.

Instructions: Follow the directions on the package to cook the pasta until it is al dente. Drain the pasta and set it aside. Save 1/2 cup of the pasta water. Chopped garlic scapes, basil leaves, pine nuts, Parmesan cheese, and olive oil should all be put in a food processor. Pulse until it's smooth. Add pepper and salt to taste. If the pesto is too thick, slowly add the pasta water that you saved until you get the consistency you want. Mix the garlic scape pesto into the cooked pasta until it's well covered. If you want, you can serve it hot with extra Parmesan cheese and a drizzle of olive oil on top.
