Recipe: Chili Relleno Casserole

One of my favorite Mexican dishes is the Chili Relleno, which is a chili
pepper filled with cheese, covered in an egg-based batter, with sauce on
top.  This dish is a lot easier to make and tastes just as good as
the real thing to me.

Ingredients:

2 cans (7 oz.) Chilis
1
small can Evaporated Milk
2 Eggs
2 Tbsp. Flour
1/2 cup
Milk
1 lb. Monterey Jack Cheese
Salt
1 can (8 oz.) Tomato
Sauce

Steps:

  1. Grate and mix
    cheeses.
  2. Line pan with 1 can chilis.
  3. Add half of cheese.
  4. Place rest of chilis.
  5. Add most of remaining
    cheese.
  6. Beat eggs until lemon color and add milk, flour, salt,
    then pour over chilis.
  7. Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25
    mins.
  8. Remove, pour tomato sauce over top.
  9. Sprinkle with
    cheese.
  10. Bake 15 mins. more.
  11. Let stand 15-20 mins. before
    serving.
