Golden Beet, Green Bean & Fennel Salad with Scallops

View Recipe this link opens in a new tab

Lemony seared scallops and a walnut vinaigrette top this healthy dinner salad. When shopping for scallops, avoid those treated with sodium tripolyphosphate (STP); it can make them mushy and the scallops won't brown properly. Some scallops have a small white muscle on the side; remove it before cooking. Source: EatingWell Magazine, July/August 2015
