Smoked Salmon and Asparagus Pasta Salad


This is one of my absolute favorite pasta salads! It's amazingly delicious and I can eat the entire bowl in about 3 days. (Should I not be saying that???) But I can. It's that good! I got the recipe from my Mom after she made it years ago and I've been making it ever since.

Smoked Salmon and Asparagus Pasta Salad
Source: Wives With Knives

*6 Tbsp. mayonnaise
* 1 1/2 Tbsp. Dijon mustard
* 1 1/2 Tbsp. sour cream
* 1 Tbsp. lemon juice
* 1 Tbsp. poppy seeds
* 1 Tbsp. tarragon
* asparagus, steamed but still firm
* smoked salmon
* 8 ounces cooked Penne pasta

I didn't have any Penne pasta so I used elbow. It's not as pretty looking but it tastes the same =o) I also don't add the poppy seeds. I have a thing about poppy seeds ever since I babysat a little guy (like 33 years ago) and he ate a giant poppy seed muffin. Then I had to change his diaper. You got the picture. So, ever since... no poppy seeds for me.

Mix all of the ingredients together in a large bowl. Yep, it's that simple!

Enjoy!

n the whole, it's probably safe to say that Provillus works up to some extent.
