Shrimp Pesto Penne

Shrimp pesto penne takes just minutes to prepare—both shrimp and snap peas cook very quickly while you boil the pasta, and the pesto is ready-made.

Spanish Octopus

Above and beyond the ingredients in this octopus recipe, the cooking method, or should I say methods, couldn't be easier. As long as you braise it gently on low heat, until just tender, and then give it a nice sear before serving, you should be in great shape. This smoky braised octopus is great served with crusty roasted potatoes.

Turkey Roulade

This turkey roulade can be prepared in the morning and cooked quickly later in the day, a show-stopper for any special occasion. Turkey tenderloin is rolled around a cranberry and sausage stuffing, and it's a great option for a smaller gathering.

No-Sugar-Added Blueberry and Banana Wheat Muffins

For the health-conscious breakfast eater, this is a great substitute for fattier counterparts. You can use all-purpose flour in place of the wheat flour if desired. Other fruits can be substituted as well!
