This recipe is to use up the garlic scapes I received in my CSA basket. Garlic scapes (also known as garlic tops, garlic shoots, green garlic, spring baby garlic, garlic spears, early garlic greens, or garlic “flowers”) are the curly tipped, extremely tasty green shoots that grow from “heads” of hardneck garlic. From Plan B Orgarnic Farms.

1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed, well drained or
3 cups packed fresh spinach leaves

8 garlic scapes, chopped
2 tablespoons basil
1 cup extra virgin olive oil
Directions:
1. Add all ingredients except oil to a food processor.
2. Begin to process and slowly drizzle in oil until smooth.
