This is simple and good. Also, important to note I already had the ingredients on hand. I used scallops instead and it was just as delicious. Thank you.

I was really surprised at how great this came out! It was fantastic. I added some garlic powder to flavor it up a bit!

yummy but never got thick...I think the milk must need to be tweeked as it was still liquid after boiling.
