Beef & Elbow Macaroni Casserole With Sour Cream

HeathersArk's Note:

Affectionately coined "Debbie's Casserole" in our household. Named after a family friend from church named Debbie N. This was a staple in our house and didn't last very long. My father in particular loved this recipe.

It's not bad, but nothng fabulous. My husband thought it tasted like Hamburger Helper. I added extra garlic and fresh basil. Seemed like too much sour cream.
