Made these a few weeks ago. Delicious flavor. The only thing I didn't do was add the flour. The sauce for me was fine without it and they came out perfect. I did add a little garlic to mine as the onions cooked. Wonderful recipe!

I was planning on making Brussels sprouts with bacon for Thanksgiving already, then I saw this one with the addition of sour cream. I was worried it would be too much since I like my veggies more simple. they are a great addition to a holiday table. Perfect as written.
