Garlic Scapes Pesto

Use garlic scape pesto in the same way you would use any pesto: toss with pasta, in salad dressing, or toss with vegetables like blanched green beans.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup chopped garlic scapes, in 1-in. pieces

  • 1/3 cup toasted pine nuts

  • 1/3 cup grated parmesan

  • 1/3 cup canola oil

  • 4 tsp lemon juice

  • 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions

  • Pulse garlic scapes with pine nuts in a food processor until finely chopped. Add parmesan and pulse twice. With motor running, slowly add oil through feed tube until almost smooth. Add lemon juice and salt. Season with pepper.

  • Use pesto right away over pasta, crostini, salad and pizza or transfer to a glass jar, seal and refrigerate up to 3 days. It can be frozen in ice cube trays for future use up to a month.
