How to make Grilled Wild Salmon with Garlic Scape Pesto and Summer Squash

Oil a grill with coconut oil and preheat the grill over high heat.

Put the garlic scapes, kale, olive oil, cheese, salt, and pepper in a food processor or blender and process until finely chopped. Divide the pesto in half and reserve one- half for another use.

Place the salmon on the grill, flesh side down, and grill 3 to 4 minutes. Turn the salmon, and place the squash slices on the grill. Brush the pesto over the salmon and the squash.

Grill the squash, turning it occasionally, for 4 to 5 minutes until cooked through. Grill the salmon 4 to 5 minutes until the skin crisps but the centre is still medium. Transfer to a plate and serve immediately.
