I found this recipe online in several places, but haven't yet been able to confirm that it actually came from John Wayne. Either way, it's pretty tasty. :) Good for either morning or evening, too.
Ingredients
- 2 (4 oz) cans diced green chilies shopping list
- 1 lb monterey jack cheese, coarsely grated shopping list
- 4 egg whites shopping list
- 4 egg yolks shopping list

- 2 medium tomatoes, sliced (or enough to circle casserole dish) shopping list
How to make it
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a large bowl, combine the grated cheeses and green chilies. Pour into a well-buttered shallow 2-quart casserole.

- In a small bowl, combine the yolks, milk, flour, salt, and pepper and mix well.
- Fold the stiff whites into the yolk mixture with a rubber scraper.
- Pour egg mixture over cheese mixture. Take a knife or fork and gently separate spots in the cheese mixture, allowing the egg mixture to penetrate the casserole.

- Remove casserole from oven and arrange the sliced tomatoes around edge.
- Bake 30 minutes longer, or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
