Introduction
I really love garlic and after spending 3 years in Spain both garlic and olive oil became a natural part of my pantry. it was no surprise that the first time I came upon a cascading pile of beatiful green, exotic curling garlic scapes (green garlic) at the farmers’ market, I couldn't resist. Even though I really didn't have any idea what do with them. Actually they are great anywhere you would use garlic or green garlic. This is fab use for them while the markets are full of many hued, nutrient filled spring potatoes.I really love garlic and after spending 3 years in Spain both garlic and olive oil became a natural part of my pantry. it was no surprise that the first time I came upon a cascading pile of beatiful green, exotic curling garlic scapes (green garlic) at the farmers’ market, I couldn't resist.

Ingredients

Be Creative - roughly a Quart basket from the farmers market.
3 tsps Olive oil
water to cover
1/2 tsp Sea Salt or Kosher salt
Black cracked pepper
2 garlic scapes finely chopped
Directions
Clean and place potatoes, water and salt in 2 quart saucepan. Drizzle olive oil over potatoes.
I like to add olive oil to my boiled potatoes anyway it keeps them from boiling over.
Bring to a boil then lower to simmer till almost tender, 15 to 20 minutes (this is dependant on the type size of potato) add garlic scapes and simmer anothe 4-5 minutes. Add black cracked pepper and serve.
You can add low or non fat sour cream, or light ranch if desired.
Enjoy
