    1. Recently I’ve tried grilled scallops. They were so good.
      We also love to grill zucchini, asparagus, italian sausages and my hubby absolutely loves lamb chops.

      1. I love scallops but have never tried grilling them..sounds delicious! We’ve grilled asparagus but I think I’ll try zucchini too. These are all such great ideas!
