I hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving. My dinner came out fine, except for one perplexing problem. I made "the dreaded" green bean casserole, off the French's onion can, as I have for about the past 100 years or so. This year it separated and turned watery. I cannot figure out why.
It was regular mushroom soup, and new milk, so I am stumped. It curdled like when you pour spoiled cream into a cup of coffee.
Has this ever happened to anyone else? The only thing I did differently is I used canned green beans instead of frozen. Of course they were thoroughly drained first.
I didn't have a veggie dish for TG. I eat salads, etc. all throughout the yr, so no veggies on TG won't hurt me.
My cornbread stuffing that is my mom's recipe didn't quite turn out the way I wanted it, but it was still good. I use toasted wheat bread, the grocery store box cube stuffing, & the homemade cornbread, which that didn't turn out like I wanted, so I didn't use any of it in the stuffing.
I was never a fan this but we did have it in my house every year. My Mom used canned greens beans so I don't think it was that change. Did you drain the canned beans? Is it possible that they or the soup was bad? Or had an additive in them?

This is a new one. ...everyone else uses canned so that's not the problem....was your did clean? Sure your cream of mushroom Campbells and the can undamaged?
I always use canned green beans, so I doubt that's the issue. Since you mentioned curdling I'm thinking it was bad milk or bad soup that made your green bean casserole runny.
Our green beans consist of fresh string beans, Maggie sauce and fried garlic slivers (found in Asian food stores)....yummy and a good balance to the rest of dinner. Never did care for the casserole one either...
