Cook with Avonmore – Reader Recipe: Salmon & Leek Pasta

Feeling peckish?

Today brings the first of our featured reader recipes for our great Cook with Avonmore competition. 

Lorraine Brennan from Galway has entered her recipe for Salmon & Leek Pasta. Lorraine told Her.ie; ‘This is a recipe I came up with on my quest to lose a stone for my holidays this year. Using milk instead of cream makes it much healthier. I use this recipe quite often for supper in a hurry or lazy Sunday brunches. Even the fussiest of kids will also eat this!’

200 g smoked salmon
