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.
