The Monday Recipe Blog

Hello and I hope you're having a good Monday.

Have you gone camping lately?  If you have, you probably had the traditional campfire food in the dutch oven.  But if you have access to an outdoor grill at your camping site, you can have some nice food now and then.

Today we will look at grilling shrimp and scallops.

Campfire Shrimp and Scallops:

For ingredients, you just need some shrimp and scallops, obviously, and a few cherry tomatoes, bell peppers and little mushrooms.  Also some Italian dressing. You are going to skewer these up.

Before you leave the house, peel and devein the shrimp.  Rinse it and put it in a plastic bag.
Toss the scallops in the bag after you have rinsed them off.

Now pour some Italian dressing in the bag, shake it up and head for the campground.

Score the tomatoes, cap the mushrooms and slice the peppers.  Put them all in the bag and shake it up again when you're ready to cook.

Skewer this all up and grill each about 4 minutes for each side.
