CHILI RELLENO CASSEROLE

An easier way to make chili rellenos

A friend of mine, Cynthia Ojeda, cooked this recipe for me once. I told her it was good enough to share with the Usenet community, so she wrote it down for me. Serve it with plenty of Spanish rice and salsa.

Ingredients

(Serves 4-6)

6 large eggs
450 g jack cheese
450 g longhorn cheese (colby)
250 g whole green chilies (1 large can)

Procedure

Preheat the oven to 175C
Separate whites from yolks. Whip whites until stiff. Beat yolks until smooth. Fold yolks into whites. Season, salt & pepper, as wished.
Grate cheeses and combine together.
Grease a 22 x 33-cm casserole dish.
Spread small amount of egg mixture in dish.
Split open green chilies and layer on top of mix in dish.
Sprinkle grated cheese on top.
Spread some more egg on top of that.
Repeat steps 6-8 until the ingredients are gone (finish with egg).
Bake for 25 minutes, or until brown.

Notes

Serve warm with salsa.
