More Peas: NewMeMD 's Seared Scallops with Pea Purée & Mint Gremolata

Here's a delicious and healthy recipe from your NewMeMD wellness team that will have your taste buds jumping for joy! 

Seared Scallops with Pea Purée and Mint Gremolata

Ingredients
For the gremolata
- ¾ cup fresh mint, roughly chopped
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons almonds, coarsely chopped
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- ⅛ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

For the scallops and peas
- 2 large leeks, chopped, white and light green parts only
- 3 Tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 1 tsp. minced garlic
- 2 cups fresh shelled peas or frozen peas
- 1 cup low sodium chicken broth
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- ⅛ teaspoon black pepper
- 12 large sea scallops

Directions
1. Prepare the gremolata. In a small food processor, combine the mint, lemon zest, lemon juice, almonds, salt, pepper and oil. Pulse a few times so the mixture is just combined (it should be coarsely chopped). Set the gremolata aside.

2. Heat 2 Tablespoons of the olive oil in a medium sauce pan over medium low heat. Add the leeks and cook until soft but not browned, about 5 minutes. Add the peas, broth, salt and pepper. 

3. Turn the heat up to medium high, bring the peas to a simmer and then reduce the heat to medium low. Cover the pan and cook until the peas are tender, 4 to 8 minutes. Pour the contents of the sauce pan into to a blender and purée - add more chicken broth if the mixture appears too thick. Set the purée aside.

4. Rinse the scallops to remove any sand and pat them dry. Heat the remaining 1 Tablespoon of oil in a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the scallops and cook for 3 minutes on each side or until golden brown.

5. Divide the pea purée among four plates or shallow bowls. Serve the scallops on top of the purée, sprinkle with the gremolata and drizzle with more olive oil.

Fake it 'Til You Make it! NewMeMD 's Cauliflower "Fried Rice"

Loaded with vitamin C, cauliflower is known for its potential cancer-fighting properties and (of course) its fresh, crisp texture.

This delicious fried rice recipe from our NewMeMD wellness team (which calls for cauliflower instead of the actual grains) will trick your taste buds into thinking you're indulging on a carb-laden dish from the Far East... but it's actually low in carbs, and only high in... FLAVOR!

Cauliflower Fried Rice

Ingredients
-1 medium head (about 24 oz) cauliflower, rinsed
-1 tbsp sesame oil

Directions
1. Remove the core and let the cauliflower dry completely. Coarsely chop into florets, then place half of the cauliflower in a food processor and pulse until the cauliflower is small and has the texture of rice or couscous – don't over process or it will get mushy. Set aside and repeat with the remaining cauliflower.

2. Combine egg and egg whites in a small bowl and beat with a fork. Season with salt.

3. Heat a large saute pan or wok over medium heat and spray with oil. Add the eggs and cook, turning a few times until set; set aside.

4. Add the sesame oil and saute onions, scallion whites, peas and carrots and garlic about 3 to 4 minutes, or until soft.

5. Raise the heat to medium-high. Add the cauliflower "rice" to the saute pan along with liquid aminos. Mix, cover and cook approximately 5 to 6 minutes, stirring frequently, until the cauliflower is slightly crispy on the outside but tender on the inside. Add the egg then remove from heat and mix in scallion greens.

6. Combine egg and egg whites in a small bowl and beat with a fork. Season with salt.

7. Heat a large saute pan or wok over medium heat and spray with oil. Add the eggs and cook, turning a few times until set; set aside.

Easter-rific! NewMeMD 's hCG -Friendly Spinach Stuffed Steak Pinwheels

Happy spring, everyone! Our NewMeMD wellness team has the perfect dish for you using spirals of lean flank steak, encircling a luscious filling of spinach and sun dried tomatoes... 

It's perfect for a festive Easter meal but since it's also hCG -friendly, you'll love this easy recipe any day!             

hCG -Friendly Spinach Stuffed Steak Pinwheels

Ingredients

- 1.75 lbs. flank steak

- bag of baby spinach

- 1/2 cup sun dried tomatoes (coarsely chopped)

- 4 cloves garlic

- 4 tbsp flat leaf parsley

- fat-free chicken broth

- nutmeg

- ground sea salt

- ground black pepper

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350. 

2. Pound flank steak until 1/4-1/2" thick. Salt and pepper both sides.

3. In a food processor puree spinach, garlic and parsley with just enough chicken broth to create a paste. Then stir in the sun dried tomatoes.

4. Spread paste on one side of the flank steak. Sprinkle nutmeg sparingly.

5. Roll up flank steak and either tie with string or use toothpicks to secure. Make sure when you roll it up the fibers are lengthwise so that when you cut into it, it will be against the grain. Insert meat thermometer.

6. Place face down in pan and bake until meat thermometer reaches 160 degrees (for "medium" cooked steaks). If your steak isn't exactly 1.75 lbs., divide the total weight of the uncooked steak by 3.5 so you know how many portions it should be cut into.
