Garlic Scallop Kebabs created by Papa D 1946-2012

This recipe is from Dr. Jane Pentz, from a book called. "If You Don't Take Care of Your Body, Where Are You Going to Live?" She has some fantastic recipes but this one is really nice. My husband and I will grill these up on the back patio with a glass of wine and have a date night at home...sometimes those are the best nights of all! Enjoy! **The prep time includes marinating time!

This is an excellent recipe, wonderful flavor. Made as written with the exception of only using green peppers. A keeper in my seafood cookbook. Thanks! *Made for fall 2009 PAC*
