Great recipe. Easy to put together ingredients that you likely already have at home. Mini Scallops are great. I added more spices - celery salt, garlic powder, more salt and pepper and I also added cheese in the casserole itself. I added peas from the freezer too, I did not have any green pepper. I made it in three dishes so my husband and I ate two and saved one for another night. I did serve it with brown rice, nice white wine, a plain salad wedge and a few french bread pieces great for the sauce. Thanks for the great recipe!

We had mixed feelings about this dish. I enjoyed it while DH didn't think green pepper's and scallop's went together. We both felt that there was just a bit to many veggies. I liked the ease of preparing this dish and that it is healthy for you. I served it with a salad and some nice bread. Thanks for posting. :)

This was very tasty, and quite healthy too! It counted as 7 WW pts as listed. The one change I made was to use a mozza-cheddar blend instead of just cheddar. Next time I will cut the breadcrumbs in half, but that's it! Made for TYM Tag. Thanks seesko! :)

I added more than 1 cup of mushroom. I used one package that is about 1/2 lb I think. I used a red bell pepper. I didn't do the topping (personal preference). But we added cheese on top and maybe more than 1/4 cup. Thanks Seesko. Made for Beverage tag.
