Thanksgiving SOS: What Do I Do If My Green Bean Casserole Is Soupy?




Oh no! You've pulled your green bean casserole out of the oven and it's soupy instead of creamy. Don't worry, there are a few things you can do to fix it!

Here are a few tips:

  1. Add a thickener. Flour or cornstarch can help to thicken up the sauce and make it less soupy. Just add a tablespoon or two of either thickener to the casserole and stir until it is dissolved. You may need to add more thickener depending on how soupy the casserole is.

  2. Cook it longer. If the casserole is only slightly soupy, you may be able to cook it longer to evaporate some of the liquid. Just put the casserole back in the oven at 325 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-15 minutes.

  3. Drain it. If the casserole is really soupy, you may need to drain some of the liquid. Just place a colander over a bowl and pour the casserole into the colander. The liquid will drain out into the bowl, and you can then pour the thickened sauce back into the casserole.

  4. Serve it with something absorbent. If you don't have time to fix the casserole, you can serve it with something absorbent, such as bread or rice. This will help to soak up some of the excess liquid.

  5. Start over. If the casserole is really bad, you may need to start over. Just make a new batch of the casserole and follow the recipe carefully.

  6. Tips to Prevent a Soupy Green Bean Casserole

    • Use the right amount of liquid. Be sure to follow the recipe carefully and don't add too much liquid.
    • Cook the vegetables until they are tender. This will help to release some of their moisture.
    • Drain the vegetables. If you are using canned vegetables, be sure to drain them before adding them to the casserole.
    • Don't overcook the casserole. Overcooking the casserole can cause the vegetables to release more moisture.
    • Use a thickener. You can always add a thickener to the casserole, even if the recipe doesn't call for it. This will help to prevent the casserole from becoming soupy.

    Enjoy Your Thanksgiving Dinner!

    With a little effort, you can fix a soupy green bean casserole and enjoy a delicious Thanksgiving dinner.
