Egg Recipe # 16

This is not a traditional chili relleno recipe because I had to use what I had in my pantry and I did not have chile poblano but I did have cans a green chilies.

CHILI RELLENO CASSEROLE

2 (4 oz.) cans green chili
1/3 lb. longhorn or Jack cheese
4 eggs
1/3 c. milk
1/2 c. flour (I used whole wheat white)
1/2 tsp. baking powder
Layer chili and cheese in greased 9 inch pan. Put eggs in blender until foamy, add milk, flour and baking powder; mix and pour over chili and cheese. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes, or until knife comes out clean.


My opinion of this dish, (seeing how this is also a new recipe for me and "the man of the place",) is that  I found it to not be the same as if made with the Poblano chili but tasty in its own right and reminded me of a tamale pie. "The man of the place" can not handle spicy or hot foods and he did not like it. But you know if want something a little spicy and have these ingredients why not make it. This dish went well with a salad, rice and if I had some, refried beans would of been good.
