The general quasiparticle propagator in dense quark matter is derived for equal mass quarks. Specialized to an NJL model, this propagator includes one new condensate, $Delta_3$, in addition to the usual CFL condensate, $Delta_1$. The gap equation is solved in two NJL models and the dependence on the quark mass of the condensates and the gap is presented. Analytic approximations for the condensates are obtained and compared to exact numerical solutions. The results are shown to differ from those obtained by neglecting $Delta_3$, especially for smaller values of $Delta_1$. The two different NJL models presented are also shown to give different results when $Delta_3$ is not neglected. The methods used in this paper can be generalized to the physical case where only the strange quark is significantly massive.
