Notes

If your family isn’t fond of nuts, you can leave out the pecans and it will turn out just fine.

For Marshmallow Topping:

If you prefer, you can easily add a marshmallow topping instead. After mixing the main casserole ingredients and placing them in the casserole dish, spread 1 (10.5 oz.) package miniature marshmallows over the top and bake as directed. The marshmallows will turn a golden brown.

For Pecan And Marshmallow Topping:

Make the recipe according to the directions above. Before baking, spread 1 (10.5 oz.) package miniature marshmallows over the top of the casserole and the pecan topping and bake as usual.
