It was a Gobble Feast this evening.  I first made the Scallops with zucchini and cauliflower couscous .  This was a very quick dish to make, since all the veggies came pre-chopped.  The zucchini was just precious:

However, as I was plating the dish, it was clear it would not be enough food -- even for me:

I checked another of our Gobble dishes and Salmon with Quinoa and Mizuna salad was even faster to make (pre-cooked quinoa and raw veggies for salad, premade dressing, premade rub for the salmon) so I quickly cooked it up as well.  We ate like kings!  My husband commented there was no way any restaurant around us would serve such a decadent plate like this for under $35, if you could even get it (Gobble cost: $23.90).  Two dishes WAS too much, but it was so good we both ate it all! Only one little lemon as leftovers.  What would have been perfect, tho, is both sides and one of the meat portions (scallops or salmon).

 

Oh Gobble -- when you are good you are very, very good!  (latter part of the rhyme applies as well, alas).

 

Scallop dish came with: scallops, cauliflower, zucchini, golden raisins, curry butter, garlic-ginger confit, a fresh lemon, fresh dill, fresh parsley, and sliced almonds (I added Penzey Singapore seasoning to the scallops as well as some mixed dried dark fruit).  Salmon dish came with salmon, dukkah seasoning, precooked quinoa, mizuna, radishes, grapes, a fresh lemon, fresh mint, fresh parsley, crumbled feta, and a premade cumin-orange vinaigrette.  We only used one lemon. 

 

Here is the almond-dressed scallop dish:

And the Salmon, with extra dressing on the side:

And the complete decadent plate of both dishes:

Hey Gobble: again, again!
