Make a fresh and delicious dinner in less time than you’d need to order takeout.

Savory Thai Turkey Lettuce Wraps

1. In a 12-inch skillet on medium-high heat, cook 2 medium bell peppers, seeded and chopped, in 1 tablespoon vegetable oil for 3 minutes. Add 3 cloves garlic, chopped; cook 30 seconds. Add 1 pound ground turkey and 2 tablespoons fish sauce. Cook 5 minutes, breaking up the meat.
2. Stir in 1/4 cup each packed fresh cilantro and fresh mint leaves, chopped; 3 tablespoons lime juice; and 1/2 teaspoon sugar. Serve in lettuce cups with Sriracha hot sauce, if desired.

Tangy Pulled-Pork Sammies

1. Add a metal steamer insert to a large saucepot filled with 2 inches of water; cover and heat to boiling.
2. Rub 1 (1-pound) pork tenderloin, cut into 2-inch slices, with 2 tablespoons chili powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt; add to steamer. Reduce heat to maintain simmer; cook pork, covered, 20 minutes or until tender.
3. Cool slightly; with hands, shred pork, then toss with 1/2 cup barbecue sauce and 2 tablespoons spicy brown mustard.
4. Toss 3 cups slaw mix with 2 tablespoons cider vinegar and a pinch of salt. Serve on 4 brioche buns, split and toasted, topped with slaw.

Harissa Grilled Chicken Kebabs

1. In a large bowl, whisk 1/4 cup harissa pepper paste with 2 tablespoons each olive oil and honey; set half aside for serving.
2. To remaining harissa mixture, add 1 1/4 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breasts, thinly sliced, tossing to coat; thread onto skewers. Grill on medium-high for 6 minutes or until cooked through, turning over once.
3. Toss 1 (15-ounce) can chickpeas, rinsed and drained, with 1 cup quick-cooking bulgur, cooked; add 3/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Serve chicken on tabbouleh salad with reserved harissa sauce.

Zesty Lemon Herb-Baked Flounder

1. In a 3-quart baking dish, arrange 1 1/4 pounds flounder fillets in single layer; season with 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Top with 1 medium lemon, thinly sliced; drizzle with 3 tablespoons melted butter. Bake at 450 F 12 to 15 minutes, until fish just turns opaque in center.
2. Pulse 1/2 cup Italian-seasoned croutons in a food processor until coarsely crushed; sprinkle over flounder. Garnish with chopped parsley. Serve with sauteed greens and dinner rolls.

Spinach and Artichoke Squash Casserole

1. Poke 2 medium spaghetti squash all over with a knife; place in a large microwave-safe dish. Cook on 80 percent power 10 minutes. Turn over; cook 10 more minutes or until knife slips in.
2. In a 6-quart saucepot on medium heat, cook 1 medium shallot, finely chopped, in 1 tablespoon olive oil for 3 minutes, stirring. Add 6 cups packed spinach and 1/4 teaspoon salt; cook 2 minutes or until wilted. Add 8 ounces reduced-fat cream cheese, softened; 1 cup drained marinated artichoke hearts, chopped; 1/4 cup grated Parmesan; 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest; and 1/2 teaspoon pepper, stirring until cheese melts.
3. Cut squash into halves; discard seeds. With fork, scrape strands from sides; sprinkle with 1/8 teaspoon salt.
4. Divide spinach mixture among squash halves. Broil until browned, about 3 to 4 minutes.

One Fresh Cup ($15 for a 10pack, onefreshcup.com) impressed our pros and stood out in Lab evaluations for its all-in-one system, less-mess brewing and flavor.

Genius Design: Each filter is individually packaged. Our Kitchen Appliances Lab loved that the tabs “hold on” to a mug, making pouring in hot water a cinch.

Stay-Fresh Tech: Premeasured grounds or leaves are packed under nitrogen to prevent oxidation, explains our Environmental Sciences Lab. This technique helps preserve flavor, so your drink never tastes stale.

Easy Cleanup: The hanging tabs double as handles, so you can throw out the filter without any extra mess.

Water Saver: Make a single cup instead of wasting water, beans or leaves on a too-big pot that you’ll never finish.

Exotic Blends: All five types of coffee (including decaf) from around the world, along with lavender and mint oolong teas, met our Nutrition Lab’s taste criteria.

These vehicles are equipped with certain air-bag inflators assembled as part of the passenger frontal air-bag modules used as original equipment or replacement equipment.  In the event of a crash necessitating deployment of the passenger frontal air bag, these inflators may rupture due to propellant degradation occurring after long-term exposure to absolute humidity and temperature cycling. An inflator rupture may result in metal fragments striking the vehicle occupants, resulting in serious injury or death. Mazda will notify owners, and dealers will replace the front passenger side air-bag inflator for free. The recall began March 7, 2017. Owners may contact Mazda customer service at (800) 222-5500. Mazda’s number for this recall is 0617A.
