I have been sitting on this recipe for ages and finally decided to make it tonight. My modifications- I used canned mushrooms, I doubled the recipe, and I didn't have Mrs. Dash or butter sprinkles. Instead, I added garlic powder and italian seasoning, and used I Can't Believe It's Not Butter. I think the addition of ICBINB made it even creamier. This is a seriously simple recipe. While I did the spag squash in the microwave, I prepared the chicken fry-up and the sauce. It thickens beautifully and I will probably make this healthy alternative sauce for other dishes. It was so satisfying, and rather rich. We loved it.
