This dish is absolutely delicious. Scallops,white wine,Swiss cheese,and Mushrooms make this a rich and savory dish. This is a dish you would find in a fancy restaurant. It is also fairly easy to make. I know if you like cream sauces. You will love this one. This would be a great dish for the holidays as well.
