For folks who had a watery mess on their hands -- before you chop your eggplant but after you take the skin off, place it in a colander and generously sprinkle salt all over it. Put a plate over it and leave it there for 30 minutes. Then rinse the eggplant off. The salt soaks up the water somehow, yet the water rinse doesn't get through! We make a lot of baked eggplant in my house, and I always have a disaster if I skip this step to save time. (It's fine though if you're just breading and frying it).

All the ingredients sounded SO yummy, and I LOVE green bean casserole, so I'm not sure what I did wrong with this. I made it for Thanksgiving dinner and everyone politely ate it, but it didn't go over too well as a whole. I had to leave out the almonds (everyone vetoed them), so maybe that makes a difference? I hate being negative, but I was just really disappointed with this one :(. I loved the mushrooms and onions in it though, so I think I may try it again using regular Cream of Mushroom soup instead.
