I once had Chili Relleno at a Mexican Restaurant made with shredded beef and cheese on a bed of Refried Beans. One day walking through a "Kroger", I thought to duplicate the recipe and then thought of one of my own as I browsed the store that sounded different. Read more Results. A real crowd pleaser!
