Scallops & Mushrooms

Scallops & Mushrooms 1

We went to Costco this afternoon and after 1 1/2 of shopping and then coming home, dragging in the groceries (not to mention my tired butt) and putting them away, I thought I was too exhausted to cook. But the scallops I bought had thawed, so I decided I needed to make something. Not feeling particularly inspired, I sautéed a bunch of mushrooms in butter, a little oil, garlic and basil. Then I added the giant scallops. When they were cooked, I took a sliced ciabatta roll, dipped it in the pan, and then spooned the mushrooms and scallops over it. YummmoooOO! (Channeling Rachel Ray) Big glass of fresh ice tea and we were happy.

I also bought some dried goji berries. Has anyone tried them? They tout them as the greatest super food EVER, full of all sorts of good antioxidants and stuff. They taste like a cross between cranberries and raisons. I could just eat them out of the bag, but I want to try them in a few things too. I'm thinking an apple salad. Anyone have any good recipes?
