    Sorry but this was not good... we ordered pizza. The sauce was pasty and tasted like cream cheese with flour. I know how to cook and it's not like I messed up the recipe. I like my good old fashioned recipe. It may not be healthy but it sure does taste a lot better. No substitute for this! - 8/5/10

    Incredibly tasty and relatively healthy. We add in a few more veggies and a little less parmesan. A definite favorite in my house. - 5/30/09

    I've not made this but I can see why one comment said it was pasty and had a taste of flour. When you add flour to something you generally make a roux with it and cook it with a fat such as butter first. You might have better luck making a béchamel with a lower fat milk and using low fat cheese - 3/23/11
