Notes

NOTE: The original recipe calls for mayonnaise instead of sour cream. My husband doesn’t normally care for mayonnaise cooked in a recipe. I usually substitute sour cream instead.
 
NOTE: This can be baked at a higher temperature if you are trying to cook several casseroles at once. Adjust time accordingly.
 
NOTE: I have also prepared this casserole up to the point of baking and refrigerated it for several hours. If baking cold, it will take longer to bake. Adjust cooking time according.
