Smoked Salmon Penne image

This pasta dish is so easy to make because it makes its own sauce! The cream cheese melts to form an incredibly smooth and luxurious sauce that compliments that smoked salmon very well. This recipe is a favourite dinner party entree of Food Network celebrity Chef Michael Smith.
