Perfect garlic scape pesto uses the bud of the garlic plant before it flowers. Easy to make and fresh tasting with no added herbs because the garlic scape is the greens!

1 cup garlic scapes, sliced crosswise (about 10 to 12 scapes)

¼ cup toasted pine nuts (or any nut)

½ cup extra virgin olive oil

¼ cup Parmesan cheese

Kosher salt and black pepper

lemon juice to taste

Purée in food processor and enjoy on pasta or chips, spiralized veggies
