May 22, 2009, Newsletter Issue #116: Versatile Salmon Pasta Recipe

Tip of the Week

An easy and quick way to enjoy salmon, while extending your budget, is found in this salmon recipe. You can make this for a quick lunch, or light dinner meal. This will serve one or two people, depending on how hungry you are.

One package Ramen noodle
3 ounces salmon, cooked
¼ c broccoli
1/2” onion slice, chopped
¼ c sweet peas
soy sauce to taste
garlic powder to taste
ramen seasoning mix, if desired

If you do not want to cook the salmon yourself, simply use the canned pink variety. If you do cook your own salmon, it does not matter which method of cooking you choose. You will simply be flaking it (or chunking it) into the dish.

Place about 3-4” of water into medium saucepan. Add broccoli, onion, and noodles. Bring to boil. Reduce heat and cook until noodles are done (only a few minutes). Drain. Place back into saucepan and add salmon, peas, and seasonings. Season to taste. Serve warm.

Hint: This recipe can easily be made into a healthy salmon soup. Simply add more water to begin with. And, do not drain it as in the recipe above. You will be making the soup as directed on the Ramen noodle package but adding more variety with the veggies and spices. Try adding some carrots and chestnuts for extra tasty treats.
