Powerful strong flavors in this pesto really work! The beautiful garlic scapes at the farmer's market were so appealing, I purchased some without knowing what I'd do with them. This recipe seemed like just the ticket. Garlic scapes are blended with almonds, olive oil, and Parmesan cheese. I served this on bow-tie pasta.

As I tasted the pesto to adjust the flavoring, and was amazed at the strong and peppery flavor. However, everyone, including the teenagers, really enjoyed it.

Garlic scapes are a fleeting spring food - grab some up - you will enjoy this dish.
