Penne Alfredo With Basil Sauce
This healthy recipe for Penne "Alfredo" With Basil Sauce comes from Barilla chef Lorenzo Boni, and was served at Oldways' 15th Anniversary Conference on the Mediterranean Diet Pyramid. A low-fat cauliflower sauce replaces the usual heavy Alfredo sauce, and a basil-Parmesan pesto adds color and lots of fresh herb flavor.

Vegetarian Paella
Saffron's complex flavor really shines in this vegetarian version of the classic Spanish rice dish, paella. Feel free to change up the vegetables based on seasonal availability -- peppers and asparagus are nice additions. Non-vegetarians can add seafood and chicken for a more traditional take on the dish.
