Green bean casserole: double the servings, double ALL ingredients?!


Question: Green bean casserole: double the servings, double ALL ingredients!?
I'd like to double the green bean casserole recipe on the back of the can of French's fried onions, so that it would serve twice as many people!. Should I use twice the amount of EVERY ingredient listed in the recipe!? Or would doubling the milk and cream of mushroom soup make the casserole too milky and creamy!? And would I still bake it at the same temperature and for the same amount of time as in the original recipe even though I'm doubling the recipe!? Thanks in advance for your help!Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
Speaking from experience, no you do not automatically double all of the ingredients!. You are right on track when you question doubling the milk!. When I doubled the milk it got too soupy and I ended up tripling it and the not adding more milk!. I would recommend you put in about 1 1/2 times the milk originally called for and then see how the consistency is!. If it is far too gloppy then add a tablespoon of milk at a time until you like the consistency!.

also, you would bake for the original amount of time listed at the original temperature!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Double the amt!. of all ingredients and yes you will need to cook a little longer also!. I would say give it about 20 more min!. in the oven at the same temp!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Double all but the french fried onions,just crush them more then sprinkle over the top!.Make sure to use a larger casserole dish so all fits!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

If you want to make double the amount then obviously double the recipe!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
