ThermoFun's philosophy is simple, delicious, flavoursome recipes, so you know when 'Mad Monday' rolls around that's what you're going to get. This thermomix Creamy Salmon & Mushroom fettuccine is the simplest and yummiest dish I have had lately!
Although I love seafood, it was the time it took to "throw this together" that really appealed to me and to the family, because for some reason they get hungry around 6pm?!?! Go figure! ;)
This recipe works so perfectly because yesterday was Mad Monday! That's how hectic my Monday was that I didn't even get a chance to post this! I trust your family will enjoy it as much as mine do.
If you don't like salmon or don't have any - try tuna, or even some cooked shredded chicken works nice as well.

Thank you for another delicious recipe!! This was yum. Used canned tuna as didn’t have any salmon. Thinking might trial this as a pasta bake next time. Thanks again Leonie xx

Thank you Lesley. Yes I often use can tuna for salmon or vice versa! The bake sounds great too - let me know how it goes for you. :)

Trish says
We really enjoyed this. I baked some fresh salmon in the oven and served it on top of the pasta. Absolutely delicious and simple. This is an amazing recipe.
thermofun says
Thank you so much Trish - pleased to hear you enjoyed it! :)
Nick says
Hi, can you do with fresh Salmon as well?
thermofun says
Hi Nick, yes I'd suggest you steam the salmon in the varoma for approx. 10 mins (time varies depending on thickness of salmon). After cooking in the varoma you can then cut it to the size of pieces you would like. Or you can cook it in the bowl but it would also need approx. 10 mins.

I made this also with smoked salmon.
Turns out my cream was out of date so I substituted it with a tub of light philly spreadable cheese and one avocado.
Superfast and super yum!
thermofun says
Yum I love avocado too Deb :)
Elizabeth Rosser says
Yum! I had a packet of Smoked Salmon that needed using and substituted with it and even the kids ate it (admittedly the four year old just ate the pasta but he didn't scrape the filling off). And your tip cooking the pasta (made it with penne) in the thermo server sheer genius!
