Creamy Salmon Spaghetti

Smoked Salmon, Courgette and Pea SpaghettiThis meal is super quick to put together and under a £1 per portion! It's creamy and packed full of veggies, accompanied by wholewheat spaghetti, a complex carbohydrate which doesn't leave you with that bloated feeling. Wholewheat means it's packed full of fibre so you stay fuller for longer.150g Wholewheat Spaghetti (75g per person)Half a Courgette25g Frozen Peas1 x Spring Onion80g Smoked SalmonTbsp Low Fat Creme FraicheApprox, based on Tesco pricing.Cook the Wholewheat Spaghetti according to package instructionsMeanwhile, heat oil in a small frying pan and gently fry the chopped Spring Onion and sliced Courgette until tender.Add the tbsp of Low Fat Creme Fraiche and stir in the Peas and Smoked Salmon. Simmer gently for 5 minutes. Do not boil.Drain the cooked Spaghetti, stir through the sauce and serve.My cheapest dinner option to date, and it only takes 10 minutes to put together. This beats any processed creamy sauce you might pick up in supermarkets and is tons better for you! You can also experiment with more vegetables such as Asparagus and Leeks - the more veggies the better.
