Date Night dinner! And what says love better than scallops. John knows that scallops are my favorite seafood – probably my favorite protein. For Mother’s Day one year, Jonathan made a dish of butter braised leeks, mashed potatoes, scallops and asparagus. He recreated a dish that we had had in a restaurant. It was so, so good. I knew for sure that he loved his mom. These are leaner days but scallops can still have a starring role.

John quick seared the scallops. I made some broccoli and we had leftover chipotle/cinammon butternut squash. I made some tartar sauce. Perfect.
