We will definitely make this again! I used whole wheat rotini, which held the sauce really nicely, and I omitted peas (eww, peas!). I also followed the suggestions given by some other reviewers and increased the parmesan (I probably used 3-4 tbsp for 2 servings) and lox (about 5 oz for the 2 servings). Spectacular!

    This was a nice dish, but the whole family agreed on three points: too many peas, not enough Parmesan cheese (the sauce was a little bland) and waaaaaay too litle lox. I'll make it again, with our changes, it should be great. Thanks Yoop!

    What's not to like about cream cheese and lox? I agree that there could be more lox (will do that next time) and it is a rich meal although I used skim milk and fat-free cream cheese. Did omit the salt as the parmesan and lox makes it salty enough. Well worth making again, thanks for posting.

    this is a lovely recipe because the combination of cream cheese and smoked salmon is very traditional and then to add pasta is another way to use these 2 ingredients together. I, myself do not like cooked smoked salmon so I added the smoked salmon at the end on top of the finished dish.
