Question:
SCALLOPS

I love scallops and I've been eating them alot lately. I usually eat between 2-3 ounces of meat, however I've noticed that I can eat alot more when I have scallops, at least 4 ounces. Am I eating to much or are they one of those foods that chews down to nothing? Also, do you have any good ways to make scallops? THANKS!!    — Kelly* P. (posted on April 23, 2003)

Hi, I eat scallops alot, one of the pleasures of living in NYC and being able to shope for fresh seafood in chinatown. 1 sea scallop (th big kind) is 17 calories and 2.63 g of protein....My hubby sautes them in white wine, virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar, they are tasty. I can eat about 6, sometimes 8 of them. I have been eating them since I was 3 mos post-op. Good Luck. heather open rny 8/15 (305/198/150)

They chew down to nothing. 4 ounces is'nt to much. By the way, I love them too, although I can't figure out how to cook them.

I love scallops too!! When I cook them I like to taste the scallop and nothing else so I just broil them plain and simple. I don't put anything on them and they are delicious this way because you taste the actual scallop instead of all that other stuff you can put on them. yum yum

I cook them on the George Forman grilled, sprayed with PAM.
