 Hi all,  This was in the Parade section of last
 Sunday's paper by Rossi & Lukins. Looks great and
 healthy. Remove tough stems from spinach, Rinse well.
  Soak & clean thoroughly. Shake off water and put in a
 pot with lid. In a small bowl, combine orange juice,
 mustard & pepper. Whisk well. Slowly drizzle in xtra
 v. olive oil., whisking well. Stir in 1 T. chives;
 season with salt. Set dressing aside. Place the pure
 olive oil in a large nonstick skillet.  Over medium
 heat, add half the scallops. Cook 4 to 5 min, or until
 they are opaque and lightly golden, shaking the pan
 and turning scallops once.  Proceed with the second
 batch. Keep warm. While scallops are cooking, wilt the
 spinach over medium heat about 3 min., covered,
 stirring once. When scallops are finished, drain the
 spinach well and set in the center of a large serving
 plate. Pull spinach apart a bit with 2 forks so it
 comes close to the rim. Center scallops attractively
 atop the spinach.  Pour the orange dressing over all
 and garnish with remaining chives and the orange zest.
 Serve immediately. Per serving: 202 calories, 10g.
