Instructions
Cut salmon into 1-inch (2.5 cm) chunks.
In large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta according to package directions. Drain and return to pot.
Meanwhile, in a saucepan, heat cream and Canadian Cream cheese over medium heat, stirring, just until steaming and Canadian Cream cheese is melted.
Stir in salmon and green beans; cook, stirring gently, for about 5 min or until sauce is thickened, salmon flakes easily with a fork and beans are tender-crisp.
Pour over pasta in pot and toss gently to coat. Stir in fresh herbs and season to taste with salt and pepper.
Tips
In place of fresh salmon, substitute 2 7 oz (210 g) cans salmon, drained for an even faster meal. Frozen vegetables can be substituted for the fresh green beans.
For the Adventurous:
For an elegant dish, add 2 oz (60 g) minced smoked salmon with fresh salmon, substitute 8 oz (250 g) asparagus, cut into pieces for green beans and add 1 tsp (5 mL) grated lemon rind with herbs.
