Well...it's Wednesday!

Ugh, and of course I feel like I've been run over by a train.  So glad I bothered to get that flu shot; at least it's another yucky day outside so it's a good day to be inside resting.  That said I'll make today's post and recipes very easy and very quick.

Scallops wrapped in Bacon with Soup Shooters

Scallops in Bacon
What you'll need:
-The biggest scallops - not the small bay scallops
-Bacon (using applewood smoked bacon or another flavor like hickory or maple is best)
-Toothpicks
-Lemon juice
-1 fresh lemon
-Dill (fresh is best)
-Old Bay seasoning
How you'll do it:
-wrap each scallop individually with bacon, secure with a toothpick
-place on a baking/ cookie sheet
-sprinkle with old bay seasoning, lemon juice and squeeze fresh lemon on them as well
-sprinkle with chopped dill
-broil until the bacon is crisp
-when done squeeze a tad more lemon and serve

Soup Shooters
What you'll need:
-Your favorite NE Clam Chowder
-Shot glasses
-Fresh parsley
-Up to you but for NE Clam Chowder I prefer to spice it up a tad with Old Bay seasoning; this also complements the scallops in bacon quite nicely
How you'll do it:
-so simple...literally heat up your soup and season to taste
-when heated add the soup to each shot glass and top with finely chopped parsley
-serve with your scallops and bacon and enjoy!

Yummm...now can someone come here and make it for me?  ;)
