How to Make Scallops with Pasta in a Wine Sauce

Bay scallops are smaller and sweeter than their sea scallop cousins. Paired with whole-grain pasta, they make for a simple yet elegant dish that’s heart-healthy as well. For a lower carb dish, replace some or all of the pasta with zucchini or carrot "noodles"
