Salmon Pasta in Yogurt Dill Sauce

This may seem weird but those recipes can be some of my best work. This was a wake-me-upper inspired by these salmon lasagna roll-ups. This recipe serves two.

Salmon Pasta in Yogurt Dill Sauce

1 filet salmon
1/4 box whole wheat spaghetti
3/4 cup plain 0% fat Greek yogurt
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
1 green onion, chopped
1/2 carrot, grated
1 tablespoon capers
salt and pepper

Bake salmon at 350 for 8-10 minutes until cooked through, then let cool. Cook pasta until al dente. Mix together the remaining ingredients, adding in flaked salmon filet. Toss pasta in sauce and serve at room temperature.
