Thanksgiving Green Beans Recipe.

Ingredients:

2 cups sour cream
2 TSPs sugar
1 TSP salt
1/2 TSP dill weed
1 pound bacon strips, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 pounds fresh green beans, cut into 1-1/2-inch pieces (6 cups)
1 pound medium fresh mushrooms, quartered
6 green onions, chopped
1 cup slivered almonds, optional
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 cups onion and garlic salad croutons
1-1/2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese

Recipe Instructions:

Preheat oven to 350 Degrees.
In a small bowl, combine sour cream, sugar, salt and dill weed.
In a 6-qt stockpot, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp, stirring occasionally.
Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, bring 6 cups water to a boil.
Add beans in batches; cook, uncovered, just until crisp-tender, 2-3 minutes.
Drain.
Remove bacon from stockpot with a slotted spoon; drain on paper towels.
Discard drippings, reserving 6 TBSPs in pan.
Add mushrooms, onions and, if desired, almonds to drippings; cook and stir over medium heat until mushrooms are tender, 4-6 minutes.
Add garlic; cook and stir 1 minute longer.
Remove from heat; stir in beans, bacon and croutons.
Stir in sour cream mixture.
Transfer to an ungreased 13x9-in baking dish.
Sprinkle with cheese.
Bake until cheese is melted, 10-15 minutes.
