Salmon and Pasta with White Wine Sauce

7 Janby Amy2

Healthy Easy Salmon-and-Pasta-with-White-Wine-Sauce-and-Arugula-Salad
This Salmon and Pasta dish with White Wine that is topped with Arugula Salad has to be one my most healthy, delicious and super simple recipes I have come up with to date!  Those are some fighting words, I know, but I am not kid din’. It’s a meal of superfood bonanza proportions.  Not only does it make your body feel healthy, it makes your belly happy, your taste-buds will be doing a little jig and it ain’t bad on the eyes either!  Oh yea and it takes less than 30 minutes to prepare.  One last think don’t let me allow you feeling confused here, this dish is Freakin’ good!!  That’s double exclamation point good!!
Here is the healthy evidence
Heart Healthy & Cancer fighting foods in this dish: salmon, lemon, garlic, spinach, arugula, olive oil  !BAM! …. that sounds pretty healthy to me!
Plus, if you happen to have a picky eater in the family, you can just pull some pasta aside before adding it to the wine sauce, to serve  them a buttery noodle dish.
For those of you that have’t been formally introduced to Arugula-let me make the introductions…
Arugula is a bitter green. Known as rocket or rucola, arugula contains numerous nutrients that make it a healthy addition to any diet.   Arugula contains Vitamins A, K, B and is a great source of iron.

Ingredients
  • 2 pounds Salmon, skinned and any pin bones removed
  • 1 cup of good white wine

    This sounds delicious! I hadn’t thought to add arugula to pasta before. Glad to learn that arugula is rocket (rocket is what they call it here in Ireland). Thanks 🙂

    I’m a big fan of arugula! Didn’t know of all its healthy benefits. I like to make a base of arugula, add a cooked grain and top it with a poached egg for a quick and easy breakfast.
