Scallveg Pasta
Isn't Wholefoods a great place to shop! I wasn't quite sure what I was planning to cook when I got home but ended up with the following ingredients which made an amazing stirfy vegetable and china bay scallop dish with brown rice pasta.

Ingredients:

2 large garlic cloves thinly sliced
6 oz's of assorted julienned peppers
1 tablespoon of Italian olive oil
1lb of China bay scollops
8 oz's of brown Rice pasta
1 teaspoon of each of the following:
Thai seasoning
Crushed red chill pepper
Fennel seed
Tumeric

Method of Cooking:

Using a large Wok heat the pan with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, closely followed by fresh sliced garlic and multicolored peppers.
Add all of your spices above and stir until the veggies are 'aldente' and the spices are blended in. Add the scallops and cook for another 7-10 minutes while stirring occasionally.

While cookiing the above, your brown rice pasta should also be cooking and ready before or at the same time the vegetables and fish are ready. The pasta takes approximately sixteen minutes to cook.

Drain the pasta and pour on to a large platter. Add your 'Scallveg' topping and enjoy your meal for two. Because of the high carbohydrate content of the pasta, this meal would make for a great lunch meal or dinner if you were to limit your portion to 1/2 a cup of cooked pasta each.
