From the Disney Family Editors: To speed up preparation of this dish, use thin pasta like angel hair or fideo noodles -- they cook faster.

For those who love salmon, here's a new way to switch it up a bit. Simple and easy, yet simply satisfying! You will want more and more. It's rich, has a nice tangy flavor to it, and is absolutely delicious!

I like the idea of using fresh salmon with this instead. That'd cut down on the sodium and -- with the spaghetti -- still be a great way to get kids into this fish if they haven't tried it yet.

I made this for a party last year and the upside was that it was super easy to make in a large quantity. It's quick, it's savory, and it's flavorful. I wasn't a fan of the canned salmon. I'd either use higher quality next time, or use fresh baked or grilled instead. Have extra lemon juice on hand to counteract any fishiness.
