SALMON AND BROCCOLI ALFREDO WITH PASTA

Steps:

• In a large stockpot, cook noodles as directed on package.
• While noodles are cooking, flake and drain salmon.
• Yes, this is necessary!
• I was new to canned salmon, and so I didn't believe the instructions, but I soon discovered that salmon truly does come in huge, icky lumps.
• When noodles are 2 to 4 minutes away from being done, add the broccoli to the water.
• This will probably stop the water from boiling, so those 2 to 4 minutes might end up closer to 8 to 10 minutes instead!
• This happened to me, but, amazingly, even with 8 extra minutes of cooking time the broccoli did not become mush.
• Drain pasta and broccoli, reserving about a cup of the cooking water.
• Return noodles and broccoli to pot.
• Add Alfredo and seasonings to taste (I recommend lots of black pepper and--even better--Trader Joe's Sun-Dried Tomato Seasoning Splash, which is sold, not surprisingly, at Trader Joe's-- about 8 teaspoons of it).
• If the sauce is too thick, and it likely will be, dribble in the reserved cooking water slowly until the consistency is right.
• And you're done.
• Woo hoo.
• You just opened some cans, and a jar, and a box, and a package, and now you have yummy pasta.
• Enjoy.
