Creamy Pesto over Pasta and Salmon

Directions

Heat oil in medium skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and saut until lightly browned. Remove garlic and place in food processor. Place salmon in skillet and saute 4-5 minutes on each side. Remove to a plate and cover to keep warm.

Meanwhile, cook pasta in a large pot of salted water.

In the food processor, process walnuts with the garlic, basil, parmesan, lemon juice, and pepper. Process until the leaves are finely chopped. Add yogurt and process pesto until smooth, scraping sides once with a spatula.

Drain pasta and return to the pot. Add pesto and mix well. Break up salmon with a fork into bite-sized pieces. Toss gently with the pasta.

Serve immediately
