Gluten Free Cilantro-Lime Garlic Scape Chips
Garlic scapes are one of those farmers' market finds that most people walk past without a second glance, but roasting them transforms the curly green stems into something genuinely addictive. Tossed in coconut oil with bright lime juice, zest, turmeric, and ginger, they caramelize at the edges and pick up a savory, citrusy depth that's hard to stop snacking on. Every single ingredient here is naturally free of gluten, so there's no swapping, substituting, or label-squinting required — just straightforward, clean cooking. Spreading the pieces in a single layer is the key move; it lets the oven do its job and gives you those lightly crisped edges instead of a soggy pile. A shower of fresh cilantro right out of the oven ties everything together with a herby pop that makes the whole tray smell incredible. Serve them as a side, pile them onto a grain bowl, or just eat them straight off the baking sheet — no judgment.
