I'm pretty sure the pesto I defrosted was from here. About 1/2 cup.
Mix it up with 1 lb. deforested* ground beef
Form into spheres about 1" in diameter.
Bake in the oven at around 375 for 25ish minutes.
I'd placed parchment paper on the sheet, but should have done aluminum foil to really catch all the drips.
Still as garlicky as ever! They held their shape, but they're not the most sturdy and bound together of meatballs ever.

* Somehow I typed deforested instead of defrosted. And since I think it's funny, it's staying.
Food and recipes, paleo and not. Some thoughts and adventures. And potentially an eventual recipe by TG?

Baked Basil Pesto Chicken
Pesto:
In a food processor whir together:
Olive Oil
Roasted Red Bell Pepper (about half a jar)
Couple big handfuls of basil
Couple garlic cloves
In a pyrex-type pan, pour it over chicken tenderloin pieces. Stir it all together to make sure everything is coated.
Bake at 400 F for 30 minutes.
Really good!

Pesto Burgers!
Or more like pesto patties, since a burger implies some sort of bun as well, which I'd completely forgotten to consider the other people involved in the bbq. Ah, well.
Mash together:
1 lb. ground beef
2/3 cup (or more or less) garlic scape pesto
Form into 6 patties, hand to someone else to grill. When they magically come back perfectly cooked, combine with a salad and some grilled zucchini. Awesome.

p.s., the inspiration came from Paleo Gurl's website.

Roasted Tomatoes with Pesto
This recipe essentially came from Barefoot Contessa's How Easy is That?
Slice some tomatoes, arrange on a cookie sheet covered with foil.
Brush Olive Oil over them (I used Tuscan Herb Olive Oil from Mountain Town Olive Oil)
Sprinkle with ground pepper, ground salt, and some tuscan herb mix (dried)
Bake at 400 for 10-15 minutes.
Pull out of oven and smear with pesto (see recipe below)
Bake another 10-15 minutes.
P.S. - We roasted salmon, cauliflower, and the tomatoes at the same time and they were awesome!
Garlic Scape Pesto:
Big handful of basil leaves
Equal volume of garlic scapes
Glug of olive oil
small handful of walnuts
Whir in food processor!
Yummy.
