How To Make chile relleno casserole

  • Step 1
    Heat oven to 350 dgrees. In a 13"x9" greased/Pam'd glass pan, layer as follows: Bottom: 1 can chiles Next layer: all monterey jack cheese Next layer: 2 cans chiles Next layer: cheddar cheese

    Tips: This reheats beautifully, but doesn't freeze well. I've cooked the night before, refrigerated, and then taken to work for breakfast. You can also subsitute mushrooms/bacon/swiss for chiles/cheddar. Key is using Monterey jack cheese since it's not as oily.
