This is my first recipe post. I've been only a "Pincher" up until now, but we had our church Christmas dinner this Sunday and, based on last name, we were to bring a vegetable. I am typically a desert guy, so I tried to come up with something brand new. Walking through the store, I came up with this one. It's kind of a spin-off of green bean casserole, but not! It was one of the first dishes emptied so I only got a small portion to try. Let me know what you think!

The flavor combo in this recipe is so good. I really liked the layering of flavors in this dish. They all were there in every bite ... and made every bite really enjoyable. This recipe called for one can of milk. I interpreted this as using the soup can filled with milk.
