I'd planned to cut this recipe in half for the 2 of us, but then we had unexpected company. I ended up making it for 6, & it was received with raves even by the teenagers! Absolutely wonderful & definitely something I'd make again! Really enjoyed the combo of scallops & crab! Thanks for sharing the recipe! [Tagged & made in Please Review My Recipe]
