Salmon Pesto 'Spaghetti' image

I needed to clean out my freezer and threw this together. I was surprised at how good it was for being so simple. It is a recipe I will keep in mind next time I have extra pesto.

The salmon was a bit overcooked for my liking. I think I'll cook it for a shorter amount of time next time.

This recipe was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of salt next time I make it.

This recipe is a keeper! I've made it several times now and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The salmon is always moist and flaky, and the pesto sauce is so easy to make and packed with flavor.
