It's rich, but it's fast and easy and delicious. I often serve it during the busy holiday season when we need a quick supper because we have to rush off somewhere.

I used fat free evaporated milk and freshly grilled salmon and more cheese than listed. It was delicious. Just plan on skimming or sieving the evaporated milk if you boil it or heat it for a prolonged time to thicken it as the recipe calls for. It's not cream but it's healthier. I'd like to try this with fat free half-and-half as well.

    I needed something quick and easy to make for dinner, looked in the cupboards and saw salmon and pasta so came on Zaar and this is the recipe I found. We loved it, thanks for sharing.

    Thanks Lennie....... Had to use pink salmon as that was all our local store had. Leftovers reheated well the next day with just a little more cream added. Certainly a cookbook keeper.
