A while ago, I wrote this tasty recipe for B&M Stores and today I have decided to also share it here.

So if you are already done with all the festive dishes and crave a good old portion of pasta, here is you next recipe! Let me know if you make this one and tag me at @stralthy so I can see your creations!

3. In a pan, put 2 teaspoons of butter along with the garlic and the onion and cook them until golden brown on medium to high heat;

6. Add again 2 teaspoons of butter in the same pan and add the salmon. Cook until it get’s a nice brown color – 7 minutes should be enough;
7. By the time you finish with these steps your pasta should be done too so strain them and place them back in the pot;
8. Add on top of the pasta, the cooked zucchini and the cooked salmon, the entire cream cheese pack then stir them gently all together with a wood spoon;
