I made this tonight and it was really tasty. I added a tsp of Old Bay seasoning and some cayenne pepper to punch it up a little. - 1/21/10

This was very good! My family loved it. I added a bit more milk and a package of chopped brocolli (cooked). Excellent! We will make this again! :) - 1/4/10

Tastes very rich for such a low calorie option. My whole family loved it even my 2 year old son! I used skim milk too. - 9/28/08

tasted very good. this will definately be under my 'sometime food' catagory. although, with a big salad first and half a serving i do feel like i didn't blow my diet and still had something yummy. - 8/18/08

I loved this and I will definitely make it again. I used light olive oil instead of butter and whole raw milk (which I'm guessing is like half and half?) instead of low fat cream -- so the calories were prob. rotten -- but it's what I had on hand. Next time I'll make sure to use 1% milk. - 6/3/08

I had to add about 1/2 cup of water to make this a little soupier for my family, but they loved it! - 5/29/08
