Walnut Free Cilantro-Lime Garlic Scape Chips
Garlic scapes are one of those farmers' market finds that most people walk right past, and that is genuinely a 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 between a roasted vegetable and an addictive snack chip. The high heat crisps the edges while keeping the centers tender, and a finishing shower of fresh cilantro ties everything together with a burst of herby brightness. Every ingredient here is straightforward and naturally free from tree nuts, so there is zero label-reading stress or worry about hidden additives sneaking in. The flavor profile is bold and a little unexpected — citrusy, earthy, and faintly spiced in the best possible way. These are fantastic alongside grilled proteins, tucked into grain bowls, or honestly just eaten straight off the pan while they're still warm.
