How to Make Simple Salmon Pasta Salad
- Preheat your broiler. Place one 6-ounce salmon fillet on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Broil for 6-8 minutes, flipping halfway, until cooked through. Let cool completely, then flake into bite-sized pieces.
- Cook 8 ounces of pasta according to package directions until al dente.
- During the last 3 minutes of pasta cooking, add 1 cup of chopped vegetables (e.g., broccoli florets, bell peppers, cherry tomatoes) to the pot.
- Drain the pasta and vegetables thoroughly.
- In a large bowl, combine the flaked salmon, pasta, and vegetables.
- Add 1/4 cup of your favorite vinaigrette dressing, 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh dill, and salt and pepper to taste. Gently toss to combine.
- (Optional) Stir in 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese or parmesan cheese.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to blend before serving. Enjoy!
