    So I've only prepared this up to the stage for freezing (leaving out the cheese) and I can already tell I'm going to love this. In fact I put some on some strip steaks as a marinade tonight before grilling them. I ended up with a huge bag of garlic scapes for the first time, didn't know what to do with them all, and this seemed like a great way to preserve some for later in the year. I am very sensitive/intolerant to raw (mature) garlic but the scapes don't seem to bother me, so I love the idea of a pesto where I don't have to leave out or cook the garlic. Very easy and such a bright color!
