Simple Scallops Recipe Over Zucchini Noodles

This scallops recipe is so simple, yet delicious enough for company!

Scallops are one of those things I’ve always been a bit nervous to cook at home. For some reason, because they aren’t the least expensive type of seafood, I felt they were better kept for enjoying at restaurants. Boy was I wrong!

A few months ago I discovered the Jumbo Sea Scallops in the freezer aisle at Trader Joe’s. Since I’m in Kansas, getting fresh scallops is next to impossible, but finding frozen scallops that are high quality, taste as good as fresh and are reasonably priced is a possibility now. I’m so happy!…

Weight Watchers Zucchini and Shrimp Sauté

A relaxed Weight Watchers recipe of Zucchini and Shrimp with Cherry Tomatoes goes perfectly with our laid back summer routine!

We are almost three weeks into our summer and we have probably had our best one yet. I was worried about not doing our Summer Bucket Lists this year because I know how much fun we have had the past three years checking things off, one by one. There is, however, a certain kind of freedom to not having a “list” hanging over my head to get done. Instead, our summer so far has been full of fun and spontaneity. It’s been full of me saying “yes” a whole heck of a lot and us deciding that day what we’re going to do. It’s been amazing and I’m loving it! (Hopefully you are following Dine & Dish on Instagram and seeing all of our fun shenanigans.)

I’m taking the same attitude with Dine & Dish this summer… not that I’ve ever had a real strict schedule or expectations for myself, but things around here are going to be more relaxed than normal. For the most part I’ve decided to take the work part of summer off. I, of course, have my favorite long term clients I’ll continue working with, but I’ve said no to taking on anything new and will just be posting what moves me, when it moves me. I am so excited to have this summer be one where I get back to my roots here on Dine & Dish and fall in love with doing this blog thing just for the pure joy of it… not because I have work obligations to fulfill. …

I’ll admit it… I have been completely and totally uninspired lately. I’ve lacked interest in cooking and photographing and even writing… nothing blog wise has been giving me that spark. Personally, I’ve been having a blast with my kids and enjoying the heck out of summer, but when it comes to the “should dos” versus “want to dos” the “want to dos” are definitely winning.

I’ve felt guilt though… I love my blog and sharing recipes and life moments with you all. I should WANT to come here often and cooking has always been a passion of mine…but instead of cooking and blogging, we’ve been eating out all the time or eating quickly thrown together, just get it done, meals.

It became very apparent to me recently that I needed to find that spark of inspiration again and luckily the stroke of inspiration came… thanks to Zombies and a baker named Joy, of all things!…
