Pasta is among my favorite things to cook. It can be simple or elaborate. There are so many types to choose from. My family’s favorite? Angel hair, hands down!

My family loves trying new pasta recipes. Especially with 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. What makes Barilla great? It is made with simple wholesome ingredients that deliver a great taste.

Creamy salmon and dill angel hair pasta is amazing, and perfect for Fall.

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!
