Creamy Fusilli With Smoked Salmon image

This is a great easy dinner recipe that I discovered using leftovers from an easter brunch one year. I like adding the sweet roasted red bell peppers for additional flavor.

This recipe is not worth your time. The sauce is bland and the salmon is dry.

I followed the recipe exactly, but the sauce curdled. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

The sauce was a bit bland for my taste. I added some garlic and chili flakes to give it more flavor.

I accidentally used too much salt and the dish was too salty. I had to add a bit of sugar to balance it out.

I didn't have any capers, so I used chopped pickles instead. It was still delicious!

The sauce was a bit too thick for my taste, so I added a bit of milk to thin it out.

I used a different type of pasta, but the sauce was still delicious.

I added a bit of extra lemon juice to the sauce and it really brightened up the flavor.

This creamy fusilli with smoked salmon is a delight! The combination of flavors is just perfect, with the smokiness of the salmon complementing the creamy sauce beautifully. I also love the addition of capers and dill, which add a nice briny and herb
