Looking for variety in your diet without it taking too much time and effort? Then this meal is definitely for you! This dish brings you a combination of all the important healthy nutrients, is healthy, quick to prepare, and tastes delicious! Of course, you can also replace the spaghetti with (whole grain) pasta or rice, but make sure to choose a variant with
complex carbohydrates. You can also choose to stew the salmon, but if you bake or grill it, it will definitely enhance the dish.
I made the tomato sauce myself. You can find the recipe under the ingredients. Without the mushrooms because I rarely combine them with fish. Of course, that’s personal preference. If you’re not a fan of salmon, you can replace it with a white fish like cod or haddock.
