Pregnancy Friendly Cilantro-Lime Garlic Scape Chips
Garlic scapes are one of those seasonal farmers' market finds that most people walk past without a second glance — and that's a shame, because roasted at high heat they turn tender, a little crispy at the edges, and absolutely addictive. These chips get tossed in coconut oil with bright lime juice and zest, a pinch of sea salt, and warming ground turmeric and ginger before hitting a 400°F oven, so every bite is layered with flavor. Fresh cilantro scattered over the hot scapes right out of the oven adds a pop of herby freshness that ties the whole thing together beautifully. Eating well during pregnancy often means being thoughtful about what goes into your food, and this snack delivers on that front — whole, recognizable ingredients with no mystery additives or processed fillers in sight. Turmeric and ginger are both gentle, food-level additions here, making this a feel-good snack rather than anything to second-guess. It comes together on a single sheet pan, which means minimal cleanup and maximum reward on a day when energy isn't exactly overflowing.
