Garlic scapes are one of those seasonal farmers' market finds that most people walk right past, and that is a genuine shame. Roasted at high heat, they turn tender and slightly caramelized at the edges, with a mellow, sweet garlic flavor that is nothing like the sharp bite of a raw clove. The seasoning here — rosemary, turmeric, and ginger — is warm and aromatic without relying on any of the nightshades, grains, or seed-based spices that make snacking such a minefield on the autoimmune protocol. Every single ingredient earns its place, and the optional lemon zest at the end adds a bright lift that makes the whole tray feel a little more special. This recipe serves four, so it works beautifully as a shareable side or a light snack spread across an afternoon. The technique is as simple as it gets — toss, spread, roast, done — which means you spend less time in the kitchen and more time actually enjoying what you made.
