*NOTE* I prepared the recipe with only 1 cup of sour cream and 3 green onions, I think these two ingredients were typed in twice on the recipe. I served these potatoes last night with Best Grilled Pork Chops (recipe #27210) and grilled asparagus. They were an excellent addition to the meal. The flavor was very good and the texture was creamy, thanks for posting!
