Kitchen Acumen Tips:

• This feels like such a treat but is so easy to make it’s hard to believe. I love making this with Trader Joe’s Ricotta and Lemon Zest ravioli. It’s the perfect size for me and my husband.

• For the fish, I use smoked salmon which imparts a rich, smoky flavor to this easy and light pasta. I’ve also used cold salmon I set aside from the night before which works well too. If using canned salmon, I wouldn’t add to the pot but top the cooked peas and noodles with a spoonful as you plate it.

• Work from home lunch doesn’t get much better than this!
