Yeah!  It is garlic scape season.   They are so delicious and edible but unfortunately only around for a short time.  This is my second batch of pesto with this curly looking veggie but this time I decided to use basil and my sprouted almonds verses kale and pumpkin seeds you may have read about in my previous post.  Just as delicious!

I roasted an entire spaghetti squash for about an hour and than loosened the strands them with a fork…….it’s quite simple and makes for mush less work than if you would try and cut your squash before roasting.  It’s actually how I roast all my winter squash.

In a big bowl, I tossed my spaghetti strands with the pesto and a bit more olive oil.  To complete the meal, I seared some Wild Scallops seasoned with Salt and Pepper.  OMG…….Divine!
