About

Quissy and I had lots of left over fried rice and noodles and we were debating

what to have with our left overs? Couple of ideas were being tossed around!

We both fancied seafood that night and scallops it was :)

We chose the following dish because it’s an easy and fast dish to make. It’s

very tasty, healthy and soothing.

After dinner it was all :) on our faces.
