Ok, I know the two of these have nothing in common :-)

Now here is the recipe for the latest meal I made (from WW magazine)

Balsamic Shrimp Sauté

Prep 15 Min, Cook 15 Min, Serves 4

1 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
1 large red onion, thinly sliced
3 any-color bell peppers, sliced
1 large fennel bulb, sliced or 1 tsp fennel seeds
4 garlic cloves, chopped
3 plum tomatoes, diced
2 tsp chopped fresh thyme or 1 tsp dried
3/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
1 1/2lbs medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 1/2 Tbsp balsamic vinegar

Heat oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion, bell peppers, and fennel; cook, stirring frequently, until softened, 6-8 minutes. Add garlic and cook, stirring constantly, just until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add tomatoes, thyme, salt, and red pepper flakes; cook, stirring frequently, until the tomatoes soften, about 2 minutes.

Add shrimp and cook, stirring frequently, until shrimp are just opaque in center, about 5 minutes. Serve drizzled with vinegar. This recipe works with the Simply Filling technique.
