Trailer Park Pasta Salad IV - Pacific Northwest Edition

I had some smoked salmon leftover from a larger pack and I needed something for dinner. I scrounged my fridge and I realized I could make some Trailer Park Pasta Salad. Hell fucking yeah. Let's begin:
First make a 1lb box of your favorite pasta. I use farfalle because it is the best. Next, dice up half a red pepper, half a green pepper, half a yellow pepper and mince half a jalapeno and a few cloves of garlic. You don't have to use the same pepper combination, stupid. This is just what I had. Saute them for about two minutes. You want to barely soften the peppers but the garlic needs to be fragrant. It is a thin line.
Toss some smoked salmon (not cold smoked, genius), haf a diced red onion, 1/2c sour cream, and 1 1/2c pepper jack cheese. Normally I would use more sour cream and less cheese but I didn't want to find out what would happen if I used all my woman's sour cream. Pour the pepper mixture straight from the pan into the salmon bowl. Mix. Add the pasta gradually. You may not want to use the whole box. Toss until combined.
There you have it. A meal fit for a trailer park riverside potluck hosted by a three legged dog named Lucky. Eat it.

Nothing like a good pasta salad in the summer, like the sounds of this one...though I wonder how many trailer parkers eat smoked salmon, perhaps vienna sausages or hot dogs would be a good substitute haha, j/k!

Thanks guys. This was a really quick and easy throw together.

Hot dogs and velvetta!

We did something sorta similar this week - it's called haluski. I thinly sliced some onions, shredded some cabbage, cooked it in a skillet with some veggie oil (flavored with a bit of bacon grease), added black pepper, kosher salt, caraway seeds and a bit of dried dill. Let it cook slowly over medium heat until soft and slightly caramelized, toss with cooked farfalle, and serve warm with a bit of sour cream on top. Quick, cheap, filling and tasty!

=^..^=

I made this with sausage instead. Mostly because I live in a little butthole town that doesn't carry smoked salmon but they make this amazing fresh sausage with kickass heat and I really can't be bothered to drive an hour for fucking salmon. Moral of the story...I think my version is so much better.

You might think so...

hahahahaha - an acquaintance recently brought a very similar dish to a BBQ and thought she was really hot shit. She was going on and on about what type of peppers and noodles you're supposed to use. Now I'm going to send her this blog and tell her she's fucking trash.
