Mediterranean Salmon Over Orzo
Oven-broiled salmon is instantly elevated with a creamy, herby spinach and pesto sauce that gets its depth of umami flavor from Condensed Cream of Mushroom Soup. The vibrant tomatoes and basil give it a burst of freshness, while a bed of orzo adds to the Mediterranean flair (plus, it’s a convenient way to soak up every last drop of that delicious sauce).
