QUICK AND EASY SPAGHETTI WITH SMOKED SALMON AND PARSLEY IN CREAM SAUCE
This is one of my favorite recipes during the week cause it's so quick and easy. It is basically ready as soon as the spaghetti is cooked al dente. If you'd like a vegetarian version, just leave off the smoked salmon.

QUICK AND EASY CREAM SAUCE
The title says it all. This is a base sauce that you can elaborate on in many different ways. You could add tomatoes, onions, prosciutto, etc. This time around I had some leftover pasta, and I wanted something fast. If you have time, it's nice to add chicken or shrimp. I have made this with shrimp before, and it was delicious. I will include that recipe after the sauce recipe.
