Pasta is among my favorite things to cook. It can be simple or elaborate. There are so many types of pasta to choose from. My family’s favorite? Angel hair, hands down! My family loves trying new pasta recipes; especially those that include seafood. Today, creamy salmon and dill angel hair pasta is on the menu. This recipe is easy enough to make on a weeknight, and impressive enough for a dinner party.
A great pasta dish always starts with superb pasta, and Barilla angel hair pasta is just that! This excellent product brings great quality to your table every day, every time.

Creamy salmon and dill angel hair pasta is amazing, and perfect for Fall. I also want to share with you that any pasta dish that calls for cream is a huge PLUS in my book. Great pasta calls for great wine. The ripe apple, pear, and hints of vanilla in a Clos du Bois Chardonnay pair up perfectly with this pasta dish. A versatile wine, combined with a versatile product. Life is good!
If you can find fresh dill, by all means use it. I was in the produce section yesterday morning looking for fresh dill, somehow they were all out. Just by chance, I glanced over to where they have potted herbs. There, hiding among the basil, and chives was a lonely dill plant waiting for me. SCORE!
Finally, if you want to spread the love, go ahead and share this post with your friends and family. Pin it, tweet it, or simply leave me a comment; I would really love to hear from you.
