Pan seared scallops are such an elegant yet EASY dinner for two—that takes only 10 minutes to prep! Served with coconut milk cauliflower rice & a fresh mango salsa, it’s the perfect quick dinner idea for a date night or a special meal at home.
Most people assume cooking scallops at home is really hard or complicated, but scallops seared in butter are actually SO simple to prepare! They’re light, flavorful, and rich in protein. And scallops also cook very quickly, so they’re my go-to choice when I want to make a fancier homecooked meal without spending a ton of time on it.
First, I’m sharing 2 quick & easy side dishes that I like to pair with my healthy scallops dinner: A zesty mango jalapeño salsa that complements the butter scallops perfectly, and a creamy coconut cauliflower rice that you can make with frozen riced cauliflower.
Then, I’ll walk you through how to pan sear scallops in butter (or oil) on the stove, so you end up with perfect seared scallops every time—even if you’re a beginner! Healthy dinners & special homecooked meals don’t HAVE to be so hard. If you’ve never tried searing scallops at home, I encourage you to give it a whirl and see how easy it can be!
How to make the BEST easy banana pudding with vanilla wafers – all from scratch & totally eggless! A super simplified recipe for old fashioned banana pudding without the meringue: just real banana flavored pudding, homemade nilla wafers, sliced bananas, and whipped cream.
Unlike most recipes, this no-bake homemade banana pudding is made without instant pudding mix, and with REAL bananas in it for the best flavor. So you’re not just eating a vanilla pudding with sliced bananas, but a creamy pudding that ACTUALLY tastes like bananas!
And unlike other southern style banana pudding recipes, this version is entirely egg-free & completely from scratch—both the pudding & the vanilla wafers recipe! I’ll walk you through how to make banana pudding AND homemade vanilla wafers without eggs, and then how to layer your pudding with nilla wafers to make the easiest-ever eggless banana pudding trifles.
