Garlic Scape Pesto

One of my favorite things about going to the farmer’s market is encountering a vegetable that I have never cooked before. Garlic Scapes (the tops of the bulb) are currently in season and they make a really amazing pesto!

  • 1 bunch of scapes
  • 1/3 cup walnuts
  • olive oil
  • grated parmesan
  • salt & pepper

Chop the scapes into 2 in pieces. Add the scapes & walnuts to a food processor and chop until it turns into a paste. Add parmesan to taste. Turn on processor and slowly pour in olive oil until it becomes smooth. Salt & Pepper. Server with bread or pasta!!
