Ingredients

4 eggs

1 1/2 cups milk

2 Tbsp all purpose flour

1/2 tsp pepper

1/4 tsp salt

12 fresh or 2 7- oz cans whole green chilies, split open

4 cups shredded cheddar cheese (about 1 pound)

4 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese (about 1 pound)

2 cups cilantro or shredded lettuce

3 tomatoes, diced

sour cream or crumbling cheese

1 12 oz can refried beans

1 onion, diced

Directions

Lightly grease a 9 x 13 glass baking dish.

Beat the first 5 ingredients in a medium bowl to blend.

Arrange chilies from one can in the bottom of the baking dish, completely covering the bottom.

Sprinkle with 1/3 of the cheese mixture.

Repeat layering twice.

Pour egg mixture over the cheese and let stand 30 minutes.

(Can be prepared 1 day ahead-covered and refrigerated)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Bake until casserole is slightly puffed in the center and golden brown on the edges (about 45 min)

Let cool for 20 min and serve.

Fry onion and beans together. Or use fresh diced onion as topping along with tomato and cilantro and cheese.

Serves with beans.

I added sides of shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, sour cream and refried beans.

This was really good and pretty simple. It's just the two of us so I only used 4 Pablanos and adjusted the other ingredients accordingly. The style I get at our Mexican restaurant also has a ground beef filling so I browned some hamburger with a little taco seasoning mix and placed that on top of the cheese, then closed up the Pablanos and covered with the egg mixture. After baking about 25 minutes I topped with some enchilada sauce, a little salsa verde and a sprinkle of Mexican blend cheese and baked for 15 minutes longer. I know it sounds like a lot of changes but I really only added the beef and then sauces at the end. In other words, this recipe is a keeper. I was make again. Thanks for sharing. Peg
