This turned out awesome. I didn't have all the ingredients on hand but I made do. My father loved it too. He said excellent. I used one medium onion though and added some shredded carrot instead of celery. I also used small fresh shrimp instead of canned. Andd added some garlic to the onions. - 1/27/10

This was delicious! I added chopped up squash and 2TBS of light cream cheese- yummo! I was hesitant about this recipe but I am so glad my boyfriend talked me into trying it. Absolutely delicious! Used whole wheat flour too- perfect south beach recipe!! Definitely will be making this again! - 3/12/12

Loved it! I made a few modifications, tilapia in place of cod, no shrimp and no onions. I also used about a quarter of the cheese and half as much butter (I just added a bit of water to the butter I did use so there would be enough liquid for the roux) and it still tasted rich and wonderful. - 2/17/12
