This is a recipe I created for my husband and me. It's great for a quick work-night meal with a salad of spinach, thinly sliced sweet onion, and pine nuts. -Karlette Warner, Palo Alto, CA Ingredients:
1/2 pound uncooked pappardelle (wide ribbon pasta) or fettuccine |
1 teaspoon butter |

1 (4-ounce) smoked salmon fillet, skinned and cut into small pieces |
1/2 teaspoon dried dill |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
