Think garlic can’t be a side dish? Late spring through early summer the scape of garlic is ready for harvest. Take advantage of these delicate greens. Smaller scapes are more tender and require less cooking time. This is one of those simple dishes that really packs a punch.

Recipe Notes
This recipe is so simple and delicious, the kids will want to cook it! I have been known to double the dressing then use this as a salad topper; the sweet balsamic makes a great dressing over a spring mix.
