Mark's Notes:
This is a very simple recipe. In hindsight, the 1 cup sour cream was a bit overwhelming. If this got cut in half to 1/2 cup sour cream, that should work out a little better.

Mark's Story
We were hosting Christmas this year. I was looking for some sides to make. At Thanksgiving, I made a traditional green bean casserole with mushrooms and topped with onions. My kids don't like mushrooms or onions very much. They do like green beans. So, I started looking for a green bean casserole without mushrooms or onions. I came across this one. It's really easy to make and quite delicious. Enjoy. Merry Christmas. Jesus was born to bring us peace and forgiveness.
