Dinner for 2!

This past weekend was my boyfriends birthday soo I cooked him some of his favorites. He loves crostinis with just about anything on top! I made him some with this bruschetta maker I found at Marshall's(which by the way that and Tj Maxxs I ♥). I chopped up plum tomatoes and some garlic and mixed in some basil paste. Easy and Yummy!



Next we had a Salad, that didn't go as planned but was still very good! I bought a bag of spinach leaves at the supermarket and did not realize till I got home that it was open. BUMMER... he loves spinach leaves. I just layered some yellow and red tomatoes with mozzarella and topped it with crab meat and a balsamic red onion vinaigrette. Still very goooood!

Then for the main course!!!! He wanted scallops. I wanted them wrapped in bacon but it wasn't my birthday so I made a something different. Being from the south I love shrimp and grits and thought to myself I've never had scallops over grits and WOW!! I asked him and he said, "That's what I want." I seared the scallops and put them over grits with a Sherry cream sauce. He loved it!


Dessert was postponed. Will update when it's ready!
