Smoked Salmon Alfredo
Our light and creamy smoked salmon Alfredo is a cozy Italian-inspired comfort meal. Crisp snow peas gives this dish a pop of color and a bit of crunch. If there are leftovers, stir in broth or water, and reheat gently in microwave or stovetop; the sauce will thicken as it cools.

Directions
Cook pasta according to package directions, omitting salt. During the last minute of cooking time, add snow peas to pasta. Cook 1 minute, until pasta is al dente and peas are crisp-tender. Drain; cover and keep warm.
Meanwhile, melt butter in a skillet or saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic, and saute 1 minute, until fragrant. Add broth and cream cheese. Cook 3–5 minutes, whisking frequently, until mixture is well-blended. Add Parmesan cheese, stirring until smooth.
Stir pasta mixture into sauce until pasta is coated. Add salmon, stirring gently until just combined. Sprinkle with pepper and dill. Serve immediately.
