Pasta and Salmon

,

I've never posted a recipe with fish, and that's a shame because I like fish. :yes:

So - here goes: ZRS ~ Zaphira's Recipe Service ~ proudly presents:

Zaphira's Super Easy Pasta with Salmon

(Approximately 2 servings, depending on how hungry you are)

You'll need:

200 gram of pasta (I use half whole grain pasta, half ordinary pasta)
6-8 plum tomatoes
100-150 gram Salmon (both fresh and smoked goes)
A large spoonful of fresh cream cheese
A splash of milk
Salt

(Looks really easy already, don't you think??)

Boil the pasta. While it boils I usually peel the tomatoes. If you don't mind the "skin", then don't peel them. I put them in a bowl, splash boiling water over them, take them up after a minute, and the skin peels right off. Easy! Cut them into smaller chunks.

Cut the salmon into bite-friendly pieces.

Drain the pasta when boiled. Leave it in the pot. Ad a large spoonful of fresh cream cheese - I use Philadelphia Light, but use which ever one you have. Ad a splash of milk and stir until the cheese is melted.



Instead of cheese and milk you can use cream, but be aware that it ads calories as well.

Ad the tomatoes, the salmon and a pinch of salt and heat it up.



Stir carefully, and serve. I've grated cheese over it - but that is optional. :yum:




It's really easy and delicious - and it tastes even better the day after. :happy:

Ummmm.......looks and sounds yummy! :smile:
This would be good substituting shrimp for the salmon also.

As for tasting better the next day, some people down here only cook three times a week. Just make up a mess of different stuff and warm it up as needed. Saves a lot of time over the week. :up:

Stardancer 27. October 2009, 04:38

Looks really good!

:chef:

:smile:

Kitty 27. October 2009, 04:45

@ Phantom ~ I love this dish both because it tastes yummy and because it's really easy to cook. Shrimp would work in this too - I think it would be good with both, too. :up:
And yeah, it does save time to cook for more than one day at a time. What makes this better is that it gets "creamier" on day two. :happy:

@ Star ~ Thank you - it really is. :happy:

Carol 27. October 2009, 05:08

Looks good. I'd try it if you offered me some. :smile:
I've never really liked salmon but I think that's because it wasn't made right.

Mit 27. October 2009, 05:18

:eyes: :yummy: Do you know it's lunch time here? :chef: :chef:

Kitty 27. October 2009, 06:05

@ Carol ~ I'd gladly make it for you - and you're right: salmon can taste so differently depending on how it's made. :smile:

@ Mit ~ If I just made you even more hungry, my goal is reached! :lol:

Mit 27. October 2009, 06:09

:lol: You did, indeed.

Kitty 27. October 2009, 06:16

Oh goodie! :happy:

Carol 27. October 2009, 06:21

Awww, thank you Kitty. :smile:
:heart:

Kitty 27. October 2009, 06:22

You're always welcome, Carol. :heart:

Carol 27. October 2009, 06:45

:happy:

Kimmie 27. October 2009, 07:59

Hmmm, I've never tried salmon with tomato. Sounds interesting :chef:

r♡se 27. October 2009, 08:41

In my opinion, fish is always better when somebody else cooks it :D.

The Dark Furie 27. October 2009, 10:33

And covers it in batter then serves it with chips and gravy. :up:

Angeliki 27. October 2009, 12:05

Jurjen 27. October 2009, 18:27

This looks easy enough to try sometime! :up:
I think I give it a try soon :smile:

RedFreya 27. October 2009, 18:36

I`m just about to cook (reheat) a Marks and Spenser`s Chicken Pie. I don`t fancy it. :frown: Please send me (and my friend ) 2 servings of the Zaphira`s Zuper Zalmon dish, :chef: ( the above Chocolate cake :love: would be nice as well) :D

Kitty 27. October 2009, 20:14

@ Kimmie ~ Tomatoes and salmon goes very well together, in my opinion. But then again, I really like warm tomatoes. :up:

@ Rose ~ I almost only get fish when I cook it myself. awww

@ Mik ~ I don't think I'd like this with gravy. :D

@ Angeliki ~ You're welcome. And that chocolate cake is more than welcome. :heart:

@ Jurjen ~ Simple, but good. Please let me know if you liked it. :up:

@ Freya ~ I'm sure my dish is better than a bought chicken pie (even without having tasted the pie) :yes:
Thanks for the nice word, they're appreciated. :up:

Jurjen 29. October 2009, 20:31

I made it today, and it was very nice! Simple enough to make in no-time. I'm going to make this more often. :smile:
Thanks for sharing :happy:

Kitty 29. October 2009, 20:34

Oh goodie, I'm so glad that you liked it. :happy:

:lol:

It's the only way to get blokes to eat fish, Zappy. :wink:

The Dark Furie 30. October 2009, 01:44

Not the only way, just the quickest. :chef:

Kitty 30. October 2009, 05:25

Jurjen is a bloke and he just ate fish! :wink:

Jurjen 30. October 2009, 10:13

David Scott Aubrey 30. October 2009, 10:30

But ... but ... where's the batter? :wink:

The Dark Furie 30. October 2009, 12:11

Several hundred miles away with his penis. :up:

Kitty 30. October 2009, 12:42

Whoa, that's serious fish-catching! :eyes: How is that even possible! :faint:

*ignores the penis* :lol:

David Scott Aubrey 30. October 2009, 20:16

* Suddenly hears George Costanza in his head yelling, "You can't ignore the penis, baby", for some disturbing reason. *

Kitty 30. October 2009, 20:42

*checks to see if it's full moon*

Hmm...

You're all acting surprisingly weird today! :lol:

Mina 31. October 2009, 05:23

:chef: I want some. awww I'm sorta tipsy and I'm thinking it'll go good with my wine. :D

Kitty 31. October 2009, 06:24

I'm sure it would. What's the time difference between you and me? It's 7.24 in the morning here now. :up:

Mina 31. October 2009, 15:31

ummmm Clint is 7 hours ahead of me. Well 8 as of tonight with Daylight Savings Time Kicking in.

I can't figure out the Opera posting time.... :confused:

Hope that helps.

I'm Central Time in the US

Kitty 31. October 2009, 15:51

I think I'm in the same time zone as Cois! So yes that helps a lot, thanks. :up:

Mina 1. November 2009, 17:48

Most welcome... now we're 8 hours apart.

crazy eh?

Kitty 1. November 2009, 17:49

Yeah, that's crazy. I get up when you go to bed. Doesn't make any sense. awww

Mina 1. November 2009, 17:56

It is pretty crazy we are on at the same time.. Could only really happen on a weekend. :hat:

Try loving someone 8 hours away... awww

Kitty 1. November 2009, 17:57

Hooray for weekends, then. :hat:

Time difference could be worse. It could be 10 hours. Or even 12. :left:

Mina 1. November 2009, 18:09

*lafs* Okay, it could be worse.. P:

Optimistic as usual, Kitty. :happy:

I have lost a bit of my optimism the last few weeks. I keep telling myself it has to get better, but the truth is, it has gotten worse.

Babystep one more day. :hat:

Kitty 1. November 2009, 18:22

Some idiot once said that it has to be really bad until it gets good. I'm not so sure that I believe in that, but I sure hope it gets better.

I really try to be optimistic, but I must admit that it's not always that easy. :smile:

Mina 1. November 2009, 21:24

I'm normally a few inches shy of being a Pollyanna. Annoyingly so.

So this dark deal I got going on is sort of freaking out people who know me.

:left: I can't pretend.

And thanks.. I hope it gets better soonish before I crack and they throw me into a hospital somewhere... :lol:

Kitty 1. November 2009, 21:43

I'm not good at pretending either, so I just try to stay away from people when I feel down. :smile:

Ha, I was just thinking, that I find that it's when I hit the bottom I know things can only go up from here. :D

Mina 1. November 2009, 21:56

Yeah.. I think that too.. Then this week showed me there is much more that can go wrong.

Right now, after losing my credit card, my phone breaking, and getting a four day migraine, (among a host of other things) I am just hoping my car doesn't break down, because it's been acting up alot and dying for no reason. No car, no work. I drive around 80 percent of my job.

:D

Kitty 2. November 2009, 04:32

Okay, that's a lot of bad things happening at once. :irked:
I'll cross my fingers and toes and send out positive energy that your car will keep working!!
*hugs* :heart:

Mina 2. November 2009, 05:18

*lafs* Thanks Kitty.

I will send you some so you really enjoy your nice easy week. :D

Kitty 2. November 2009, 06:49

Cool - I appreciate that! :yes:

Mina 3. November 2009, 02:54

:happy: :love:

How's it going so far? P:

Kitty 3. November 2009, 05:48

Slow but steady. Tries to tidy up as well and toss old things that I don't use. :D

Mina 3. November 2009, 15:39

It always ends up a huger mess in the middle than imagined, but accomplishing it always feels amazing.

Something about getting rid of clutter that seems to free the mind too.... :up: Wish I could be there to help. *smiles*

Angela Steiger 8. November 2009, 13:45

yummy, yummy, yummy and i like it the feet! wine

Kitty 8. November 2009, 13:58

The feet... :left:

Well... I am glad you enjoyed! :up:
