And the love for Bacon continues...

After watching cooking shows for hours during Thanksgiving break (while I was trying to digest... not always so easy)  , I wanted to learn how to be a "cute little chef". On TV, they always make it look so easy, apparently the main ingredient is always love. "Cook with love and passion".  I figured I could handle that, I am full of love... and always ready for good food. Always.

Last night, with my "bacon-lover-boyfriend", we made some  "Bacon Wrapped Scallops" and cooked in the oven some roasted potatoes to go with it. It was fantastic! I will share with you the recipe, so you can be a "cute little chef" or just enjoy the great mix between seafood and bacon. You can't go wrong with that.
