FRIDAY TREAT: The combination of flavours here is a real winner, so quick and easy to prepare too. I used the extra large pasta shells because my kids love them so much but the smaller size would also be fine.

    Sounds like an excellent recipe for a rainy Friday evening – might even be good to have baby squid rings instead of the scallops!
