Bow Tie Pasta With Smoked Salmon Farfalle Al Salmone Affunicato

---

Fabulous, quick and tasty pasta dish. i make this often and my husband inhales this (it is a sight to behold, let me tell you). serve with a big loaf of garlic bread and your guests will be in heaven. it serves 4 people (well, normal people- my husband can eat more than half of this himself) but you can easily double for a larger crowd.
