Creamy Salmon Risoni / Orzo (15 Minute Meal)

1. Risoni is known as orzo in America. It is pasta that is shaped like rice. It can be found in the pasta aisle of pretty much all supermarkets nowadays. It's great for fast meals because it cooks so quickly!

2. Fill this out with more nutrition by stirring spinach through at the end - the residual heat will wilt it quickly. Or add more diced vegetables - cook them after you saute the onions!

This can be made with other proteins as well. I made this with hot smoked salmon that I purchased from the supermarket. You could also cook your own salmon - just season with salt and pepper and roast at 180C/350F for 12 minutes or so, or pan fry. If you want to use other proteins (raw), cut them into bite size pieces and cook them after the onions, then proceed with the same recipe. This would be great with chicken, shrimp/prawns, other fish and pork. It would also work well with ground/mince chicken, pork and turkey.

It can also be made with CANNED salmon! Just drain it and flake. 🙂
