"I have long believed that good food, good eating is all about risk. Whether we're talking about unpasteurized Stilton, raw oysters or working for organized crime 'associates,' food, for me, has always been an adventure."--Anthony Bourdain

Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
This recipe has evolved over the years to reflect healthier eating habits though I would not call it heart healthy, but it is delicious! I usually take different elements of each version and it always comes out yummy! The cook can take creative license and adjust amounts of half-and-half vs. goats milk (always use a good amount of half-and-half), add bacon, and/or garlic, etc.
