I made a batch of Garlic Scape Pesto from the scapes that were growing in our garden and made a batch of pesto.  I used that to make this simple pasta dish.  If you can’t find garlic scapes, regular pesto will work just fine.  I kept it vegetarian, but you can easily add some cooked chicken or shrimp to pump up the protein.

No real recipe… just sort of eyeballed everything and combined it all in a bowl and tossed together until all mixed. 
I got an 8oz pkg of sweet corn, burrata and basil ravioli from traderjoes  but really any pasta will work.  I sautéed some grape tomatoes until just soft and seasoned with salt and pepper.  I cooked the ravioli to al dente and saved 1 cup of pasta cooking water. 
In a large bowl I combined the cooked ravioli, cooked tomatoes, a handful of sun dried tomatoes, about 1 cup of pesto and some pasta cooking water to thin it out and help make a sauce.  Finish with some chopped parsley and basil and, salt and pepper and stir to combine.  Sprinkle with grated Parmesan and Mangia!

As a reminder, here is the recipe for the Garlic Scape Pesto:

1 cup garlic scapes, cut into smaller pieces
1 cup fresh basil leaves
1/3 cup toasted walnuts (I used sunflower seeds in this batch because someone is allergic to walnuts) 
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
Zest and juice of one lemon 
salt and pepper, to taste
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
.
Pulse all ingredients in a food processor until minced. Add the olive oil until you get the consistency you want. Check for seasoning
