I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my pesto vermicelli turned out really oily. I think I may have used too much olive oil.

The scallops were a bit overcooked for my taste, but the pesto vermicelli was delicious. I'll be sure to cook the scallops for less time next time.

I'm a vegetarian, so I substituted tofu for the scallops. It turned out great! I would definitely recommend this recipe to other vegetarians.

The pesto vermicelli was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some extra garlic and Parmesan cheese next time.
