Ingredients
3 c whole wheat pasta1 can (de-boned and skin removed) pink salmon1 cup canned mushrooms (use fresh if you prefer)3 cups fresh spinach0.5 c fat free sour cream1 tsp black pepper2 tbsp lemon juice0.5 c shredded parmesan cheese1 c sweet red peppers, diced/sliced1 clove garlic (crushed)
Directions
Remove bones and skin from 1 - 15 oz can of pink salmon. At the same time, bring a pot of water to boil, and cook 3 cups of dry whole wheat penne as per manufacturer's directions. Coarsely chop spinach and red peppers. Drain pasta once it is cooked and set aside. Saute the garlic, red peppers, spinach, and mushrooms in lemon juice until vegetables become slightly tender (I like mine to still have a little crunch - so only a few minutes). Add salmon to mixture and stir until salmon is warm (it's canned, so it's already thoroughly cooked). Over low heat, stir in sour cream, black pepper, and parmesan cheese. Toss in pasta. Makes 6 servings.

    I was really excited about this recipe because it had a few of my favorite foods: fish, pasta, sour cream, spinach, and green peppers... It didn't live up to my expectations. I baked salmon on the side instead of in the recipe. - 3/9/11

    My family, including my 10 year old twins, loved this dish. I am making it for the second time! - 4/22/10
