    This was great. I doubles the recipe to feed a large family. I think next time I will make it a little creamer though. I would classify this as an indulgence also but is soooo good. - 6/13/10

    Tastes great, though I'd call this a "rare splurge" recipe even with non-fat milk and low-fat sour cream. Next time I will use more non-fat milk, and increase the flour accordingly. It's obviously less creamy than the full-fat version, but still good. - 4/4/10
