Baked Chile Rellenos

My entire familia love chile rellenos, we grew up on them.  Mami made them at least once a month and during the holiday season they made a weekly appearance for family and friends who stopped by for a visit. Filled with ground beef, pork or turkey she would carefully stuff them and give them a light fry.

I enjoy finding new ways to stuff this mighty poblano and after much thought it occurred to me why stuff it at all? Why not bake them? I decided to cover them with a silky egg mixture and top them with cheese. Bake until golden, tender and served piping hot garnished with onion and cilantro alongside a simple spinach salad.  Much like a warm poblano casserole I paired with a crisp salad and served them to my familia.  They went over really well with my family. They loved them and I was happy to find new plus simple way to enjoy my chile rellenos.

Verizon was kind enough to send me a tablet to play with in the kitchen. I have been scouring the internet for poblano recipes. There is a ton! With so many sources I find that searching my favorite blogs first give me detailed opinion on a new recipe the blogger may have tried from a magazine or online source. I am really enjoying my Verizon tablet. Small enough to fit on my cookbook stand, but powerful enough to download several new apps I want to test. I am able to stream cooking videos, plus a vibrant screen to check instagram and see what everyone is cooking in their kitchen.

    I was looking for a recipe where I didnt need to whip egg white. This one gave me the results without the extra work. I really liked it and they were easy.
