Step 1

Cut the bacon into 1" pieces and cook until dark brown and crumbly

Step 2

Move about half the bacon grease to another pan, heat, and add onion and garlic until translucent, then add cauliflower until soft enough to cut with a fork

Step 3

While that cooks, chop parsley and add to cooked quinoa

Step 4

Add the cooked veggies to the quinoa as well...Now add the smoked paprika to the quinoa along with a pinch of salt, and mix the whole thing up good-like.In original pan with the remainder of the bacon grease, turn the heat all the way up, and add scallops

Step 5

Add the lemon juice, to the pan, and cook the scallops until they are a deep brown on both sides (I didn't turn the heat up quite enough, so these didn't quite brown as much as I would like)While these cook, crumble the bacon and mix into the quinoa

Step 6

Scoop the quinoa mixture into a bowl, and toss the scallops on top and you are good to go.
