Spinach and Garlic Scape Pesto image

This is a great way to use garlic scapes - the curly green tops of garlic that you can get from the farm early in the growing season! The spinach cuts down some of the super-strong garlic flavor. Use as a sauce for hot pasta, a spread for sandwiches, mixed with mayo for a spread or dip, mixed with ranch dressing for salad. The possibilities are endless!

I've never cooked with garlic scapes before, but they were easy to find at my local farmers market. The pesto came together quickly and easily, and the flavor was amazing. I used it on grilled chicken and it was a perfect match.
