Add garlic and shallots to bacon dripping over medium heat until translucent, about 2-3 minutes. Add sherry and continue cooking over low heat for 3 minutes. Set aside.

Wash Trisome Sea Scallops and remove tough side muscle. Place in medium bowl. Coat with olive oil if desired then season with salt and pepper. Grill over direct heat until just opaque in the center, and turn a golden brown on both sides of each scallop.
In a large bowl combine spinach leaves and dressing. Toss to evenly coat. Divide onto plates and add tomato wedges, avocado slices, corn and scallops. Crumble bacon over the top of the salad. Serve warm.Enjoy!
