A wonderful Mexican dish.
Ingredients
Directions
- Spray 13 x 9 x 2" pan with non-stick cooking spray. Remove stems (if needed) and seeds from peppers. Slit them down the side and lay them flat on paper towels and dab dry.
- Layer of chilis on the bottom. Then layer with cheese. Continue until all chilis and cheese are used, ending with a cheese layer.
- Beat eggs until very thick. Add flour and milk and mix until well blended. Add some salt to taste and pepper if you like. Pour over casserole.
- Bake at 350 °F (175 °C) for about 40 minutes until top is golden brown.
- Pour can of tomato sauce over casserole and continue to bake for another 15 minutes.
- Take casserole out of oven and allow to rest for at least 20 minutes before cutting. Serve warm with a dollop of sour cream.
- Note: you can use whatever chilis (mild, medium or hot) you prefer as well as a Mexican mix of cheese. You can spice up tomato sauce with chili powder, onion, garlic, oregano, cumin, etc and also sprinkle a bit of cheese on top for a nice look.

This recipe has GREAT bones!!! We switched it up to Mexican blend cheese instead of the Monteray Jack. I would add onions to it. It's missing a couple of flavors,.. but this recipe could go from 3 to 5 stars VERY easily!!! Worth a try- MOS DEF!!

I really like this. I cut the cheese in half and put red chili sauce on top.

Tried this recipe out yesterday and I think the egg mixture ruined the dish. I think it would have been fine just with the chilis and cheese.
