Simple Gluten-Free Smoked Salmon Pasta Salad

 Looking for a quick and easy meal? This delicious smoked salmon pasta salad is so easy to make with a few simple ingredients.

 The other day, while I was looking at my pantry and trying to figure out what to make for lunch with a box of gluten-free pasta, I spotted a unique-looking small box that was near my canned goods. I picked up the red box and realized it was a tin of smoked Atlantic salmon that I received as a gift. 

 The red box was quite decorative, and I remembered that the Fishwife smoked salmon was included in the food gift basket that I got last month. Once I saw the words smoked salmon, I knew that it would be the perfect ingredient in a pasta salad. 

 I had just finished roasting the last of my garden tomatoes for oven-roasted sun-dried tomatoes and knew that they would be perfect to use in my pasta salad. I also grabbed a handful of fresh kale from my indoor garden. The final step to my delicious lunch of smoked salmon pasta was cooking the gluten-free pasta.
