Stilton Penne With Zest
"I originally ate this in a Toronto restaurant across the street from the Art Gallery of Ontario where I worked at the time. This is my attempt to replicate it, and it is yummy!! The orange zest adds a little extra interest. Pasta shells would also work well, catching lots of sauce. After receiving the first review saying it was missing something, I realized I left out 2 items, so this is the amended version."

This was good, but we though it lacked something. I used bavette, about a third of a cup of pure cream, half a zested orange, and I didn't add milk. Next time I might try adding leek and spinach. As is, I think this would make a better side dish than main. Additional comment: I see this recipe has been updated. I don't eat chicken, but will make the recipe again sometime soon and add liquid smoke. Thanks! :)
