Low-fat yogurt is the secret to keeping this pasta sauce rich and creamy, but healthier without all that fat. In less than 30 minutes this decadent pasta dish is on the dinner table so don't be rushed while cooking the yogurt and flour mixture. Allowing the flour to thicken that mixture will make the perfect sauce consistency. This recipe uses canned salmon to shortcut roasting your own filled and shredding it into the pasta. If you do have a leftover piece of salmon this dish has your name all over it. The cool cucumbers and bright dill flavor will have you add this to your regular menu rotation.
