Creamy Tomato Sauce for Pasta image

I made Ceil in NJ's homemade ravioli and was looking for a rich but smooth sauce to accompany it. Tomato based with cheese, cream, pesto, and garlic. A great combination! This sauce is also excellent in lasagna! Easy and quick to make. A little goes a long way. Enjoy!
