My daughter found a fabulous new cookbook for me: WomenHeart’s ALL HEART Family Cookbook. And WOW. What a WINNER! Beautiful full-color photographs and delectable recipes – such as today’s – make this one a must-have. These rich and meaty scallops are simply sublime. Serve over cooked rice or pasta for a heart-healthy hearty meal.
