Jin's Seared Scallops

{fresh spinach, SCALLOPS, grape tomatoes, and mashed cauliflower}

I must say that these babies were so freaking delicious (giving myself a pat on the back).  I was worried about over cooking them

but they turned out just right. I highly suggest using a couple drops of natural honey or

agave nectar to sweeten them up.

 

I always order scallops when I'm out at a restaurant BUT I've never

tried to make them on my own until recently.  If they weren't so dang expensive I would

eat them every night.

 

 

 

 

 

I'm not sure if this is a good deal or not BUT I purchased 13 huge scallops (a pound) from

my local grocer for only $12.98.  The guy working the seafood stand also told me that

the light pink scallops are the females (TMI, I know)

Healthy eating can be really expensive but I'm willing to cut my expenses in

other areas so that I can eat healthy food.
