GRILLED SEA SCALLOP AND SHIITAKE SKEWERS

Grilled shiitake mushrooms are crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and pair nicely with sea scallops. I like to serve them with roasted broccoli, but roasted potatoes are a good choice too.

GRILLED SKEWERED SEA SCALLOPS

This has everything going for it - it's low-calorie, it's fast, and it's delicious. The scallops need to marinate about 30 minutes, which gives you time to rustle up a nice rice pilaf and salad to accompany it. Then throw on the grill and dinner is served!
