Very good. I should have heeded the note that said salt and pepper to taste. The amount pepper listed was too much for us. It's not as thick and creamy as ChickFilA's even after simmering for 30 min like you said. It used so many pots! I don't know why everything is cooked separate. But really good! - 4/7/16
