Asian Noodles With Perfectly Seared Sea Scallops
My choice was Asian Noodles with Perfectly Seared Sea Scallops. We found such a bargain on Sea Scallops. Great big juicy sea scallops. I believe the steep price tag is what keeps me from eating them every day. But I do love them. We bought eight (should have bought more) and decided to prepare them two ways.

Linguine with White Clam Sauce
Linguini with White Clam Sauce. Sometimes simple is simply the best. In the time it takes to cook the pasta, you can prepare the heavenly garlic butter white wine clam sauce.

Honey Walnut Shrimp Power Bowl
I’ve completely jumped onto the ‘Bowl’ bandwagon. Rice bowls, ramen bowls, power bowls, Buddha bowls, dragon, macro, breakfast and lunch bowls….they all make me happy. The perfect portion of noodles, rice or grains with added protein & veggie love. Our latest creation is the Honey Walnut Shrimp Power Bowl inspired by ingredients already on hand. Win-win power bowl.

Buffalo Shrimp Sliders {with Cool Ranch Sauce}
Slightly spicy marinated shrimp on a bed of crispy lettuce on a cushion of homemade slider bun with a dollop of cool ranch sauce. I could eat my weight in these Buffalo Shrimp Sliders. Oh yes I can.

Thai Seafood Chowder
Mussels simmered in white wine, garlic and butter, in my opinion, rank right up there with Scallops Wrapped in Bacon. So why would I mess with an absolutely delicious recipe? Rhetorical. Because Thai Seafood Chowder not only sounds like winning, but the addition of coconut milk, red curry paste and Serrano peppers took comfort to a new level.

Lightened Up Shrimp & Grits
Came through the door last Friday evening (mind you…my most favorite evening to transition from work…to my garage…to the kitchen…is Friday). You know the feeling. What a Feeling!! Flash-Dance mode. Sorry. Not sorry. So I’ve made us a Lightened Up Shrimp & Grits.

Seared Ahi Tuna with Thai Risotto
I’m not sure how it happened. Ahi Tuna on sale for $6.99 a pound. Text message…go there. Do not pass go, do not collect $200 dollars…just bring home Tuna. I have to say, I was a bit skeptical. This was not Sushi grade tuna, for which we will pay up for. But it was fresh and thick and begging for a swim in marinade. Seared Ahi Tuna {with Thai Risotto}.

Spicy Shrimp Thai Buddha Bowl
I don’t think I’ve told you about my 2015 Challenge. My Healthy Choices walking buddy Bethany and I signed up to walk a combined two thousand fifteen miles in 2015. That’s five point five miles per day together or two point seven five miles each. every day. for 365 days. All that walking during our lunch hour, makes these girls hungry. I’m proposing Spicy Shrimp Thai Buddha Bowls all around.

Feast of the Seven Fishes {Christmas Eve Tradition}
Several years ago I got a hankering to attempt the Feast of the Seven Fishes for our Christmas Eve dinner. I carefully selected recipes, ordered specialty items ahead from our local seafood market, and rewrote my plan of attack dozens of times before the big day arrived. I envisioned this becoming our new Christmas Eve traditional dinner and oh how that excited me.
