Adapted from recipe in WW magazine. the original recipe called for picholine olives (which I couldn't find) and pickled jalapenos (which I also couldn't find), so I made subs for both of these and it was a very good dish for dinner which we enjoyed. Only 4 points/serving! Ingredients:

1 teaspoon dried oregano (or 2 teaspoons fresh oregano) |
2 cups canned tomatoes (15 ounce can) |
2/3 cup jalapeno-stuffed green olives, quartered |
1 serrano chili pepper, seeded and chopped |
Directions:
1. In a bowl combine shrimp and scallops with the lime juice and 1/4 teaspoon salt; cover and chill for 30 minutes. 2. In a large skillet heat the olive oil and then add the onion and cook for 5 minutes; stir in galic and oregano (original recipe called for 2 tsp fresh oregano, but I used 1 tsp dried oregano) cook for 1 minute. 3.
