  1. Scallop-Crab Pasta Stir-Fry

Scallop-Crab Pasta Stir-Fry

Enjoy this quick, simple way to bring fresh, Asian-inspired flavors to your dinner table! The ginger, orange juice, cayenne, carrots, peas, and garlic make it an antioxidant-rich repast, while the shellfish offer a wonderfully light and satisfying source of protein with substantial omega-3s. The recipe calls for Italian pasta, but you could certainly make it with rice or bean thread noodles, available at Asian groceries and most natural food markets. Be sure to rinse noodles in cool water right after cooking to remove glycemic starch from the noodle surfaces and turn some of the noodles' starch into a "resistant" form that helps stabilize blood sugar. Pro tip: To defrost legs or scallops quickly, place in plastic zip bag, squeeze air out, close, and immerse in cold water. Scoop meat out of split leg sections after they've thawed.
