Step-Saver

Often pasta recipes require you to cook both the noodles and vegetables like broccoli and cauliflower. Combine cooking steps by throwing the veggies into the boiling water with the pasta. The vegetables will lend a nice flavor to the noodles, you'll conserve water, save time, and not have to wash an extra pan. Translate this step into other recipes too, such as in potato salad by boiling the potatoes and eggs together.
