I think I get what you are asking. The answer is to use the pentatonic patterns as a visual reference but include diatonic notes in the boxes. I cover that in these tutorials on the basics of improvising.

I also show how to include other notes inside the pentatonic boxes in these tutorials.

Also the last two lessons of this tutorial show a few tricks for expanding on the pentatonic boxes.
