Ever feel like there just aren't enough hours in a day? Between work, school, family, friends and more, it's really easy for me to feel completely drained at the end of the day, and the thought of cooking a romantic date night meal like Salmon Asparagus Fettuccine Alfredo for my husband and I just feels...exhausting.
It's really important for us to take time during our busy work week to stay connected, share a meal, and talk about all the stuff that's going on around us. We both work full time and own our own businesses, so any time we can find an hour to carve out a date night, we take advantage of it.
That's why I'm obsessed with these new products from Bumble Bee SuperFresh®!

1 package Bumble Bee SuperFresh® Salmon with Garlicky Black Pepper & Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/2 pound dry fettucine pasta
1/2 pound fresh asparagus, cut into 2 inch pieces
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon fresh garlic, minced
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon lemon zest (optional)
3/4 cup milk
3/4 cup heavy cream
3/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
Salt and black pepper, to taste
Preheat your oven to 425 degrees. Pop the Bumble Bee SuperFresh® Salmon with Garlicky Black Pepper & Extra Virgin Olive Oil into the parchment packets provided, and cook for 22 minutes.
To make the fettuccine, cook your pasta according to the package instructions. During the last 2 minutes of cooking, add the asparagus into the boiling water with the pasta. Drain the fettuccine and asparagus.
While the pasta and salmon cook, make the Alfredo sauce. Saute the butter and garlic in a saucepan on medium heat. Cook for 1 minute, stirring occasionally. Add the flour, stir for another minute, then remaining the ingredients to saucepan and stir occasionally until the sauce begins to simmer and thicken slightly. Remove from heat, then season with salt and pepper, to taste.
Combine the pasta, asparagus and Alfredo sauce. Toss thoroughly to combine.
Serve the Bumble Bee SuperFresh® Salmon on top of a bed of the Asparagus Fettuccine Alfredo. Enjoy!
