Serving Suggestions & Notes

Make it in one pot: Increase the chicken stock to 400ml and combine all ingredients in a large saucepan (the pasta goes in uncooked). Bring to a boil, cover with a lid and simmer for 20 minutes. Stir everything gently and tear apart the salmon before serving.|Make it healthier: Add a side salad or extra veg (cucumber/carrots).|Make it more indulgent: Option to add garlic bread on the side.
