Seafood Melody

I am sharing one of my newly tried and now, favorite recipes – I have dubbed it My Seafood Melody. My family and I are seafood lovers and we have had a variation of this recipe at various restaurants. However, seafood dishes can be fairly expensive, sooo I thought I would try something new that I could make at home to compete and calm the seafood craving. The key to this recipe is that it is quick and easy and I promise you, if your family loves seafood the way that mine does, they will love this! If you try it…let me know if your family enjoys it. I’ve seen both my husband and my daughter do the “good food” dance over this dish. Oh the “good food” dance is a family tradition. Shhhh next time I will try to video them performing the infamous “good food” dance and share it with you. 🙂

Ingredients:

1 packs frozen large shrimp

1 packs frozen scallops

1 pack crab meat (imitation will suffice but prefer authentic)

½ tsp salt
