Garlic SCAPE Pesto

Well, today marks two culinary firsts for me.

1.) Working with garlic scapes (sounds horrible doesn't it ... they are just the flower stalks of garlic plants) ... they look rather silly -->



2.) Making a pesto.  Something I've never done before.  The scapes, and the recipe, came with this past weeks co-op vegetables.  So, thought I'd give it a go.



What's in the pesto you ask?
Garlic Scapes
Pine Nuts
Parmesan Cheese
Olive Oil
&
Salt & Pepper


In a little while I will cook some pasta and a piece of chicken to use the pesto ... smells divine just as it is, so I'm kind of eager to for dinner.  :)
