Recipe Instructions:

1 cup Chopped Garlic Scapes - top flowery bulb part removed
1 cup Fresh Basil
1 cup Nuts - You can use, pine, marcona almonds, walnuts, pistacios, or mix them together!
1 cup Grated Parmesean Cheese
1 cup Good Quality Olive Oil

Directions
In the bowl of a food processor pulse together first 4 ingredients untill you reach a desired consistency of your liking for pesto. This can also be done in a Vitamix. I like mine pretty creamy.
Turn the machine to "on" and alowly begin to drizzle in the olive oil. You may need mroe or less depending on the consistency you prefer and the type of nuts you are using.
If making with pasta, Cook and drain the pasta, reserving 1 cup of the pasta water. Return the pasta and reserved liquid and mix in the pesto and serve immediately! I like to add fresh veggies like tomatoes, peas, or sauteed zuchini at the end.
