Rice Free Cilantro-Lime Garlic Scape Chips
Garlic scapes are one of those farmers' market finds that most people walk right past, and that is a genuine shame. These curly, bright green shoots get tossed in coconut oil, fresh lime juice, zest, turmeric, and ginger before hitting a hot oven, and the result is something snappy, aromatic, and just a little addictive. Roasting them in a single layer is the key move — it coaxes out caramelized edges and a satisfying chew without turning them soggy. A handful of fresh cilantro goes on right at the end while everything is still hot, so it wilts just enough to cling to every piece. The flavor hits bright, garlicky, and citrusy all at once, with a warm undercurrent from the spices. Snack plates, appetizer spreads, or an unexpected side dish — these chips pull their weight in any situation, and every single ingredient is naturally grain-free without any substitutions required.
