This review is solely based on the sauce flavor. To be honest, I'm not sure how I felt about the whole meal -- a bit fishy for me -- but I'm basing my review on the flavor of the sauce before the fishiness (which was a product of the salmon not the recipe) I made a few alterations to the recipe. I used only 4 oz of the cream cheese and about 75% of the parm called for. Also instead of 1/2 cup of milk, I used just shy of 1 cup of heavy cream. These changes made a tasty sauce. As the recipe was written, it would have been far too.. too.. cream cheesy for our tastes. Sometimes less really is more. I didn't have a tomato on hand, but I used about 1/2 can of petite diced tomatoes, drained, and that really was a nice touch. For the salmon, I used about 5 oz. of smoked salmon. I found that a bit too fishy for my tastes but since the amount of salmon for the recipe wasn't noted in the directions, the fishiness didn't detract from the amount of starts given. All in all this was a good pasta meal. But I'm not sure if it was good enough that I'll make it again.

AWESOME!!!! Just made and ate it, wow... DELICIOUS, but very cheesy... I will make it next time with half the cream cheese and be sure to rinse the fettuccine noodles before serving so they don't all stick together. LOVE IT!!
