  • 1 1/2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 2 cups monterey jack cheese, shredded
  • 1 tablespoon flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

  • 4 ounces (can) of diced green chiles
  • 1 - garlic clove, minced
  • 1 tablespoon yellow onions, minced

How To Make chile relleno breakfast bowls

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 325 degrees Lightly grease 4 10 oz. custard cups In small bowl combine the cheese, flour, salt and pepper. In another small bowl combine beaten eggs, chiles, garlic and onion. Add 1/2 of cheese mixture to egg mixture.
  • Step 2
    Brush both sides of tortilla with melted butter. Nestle each tortilla into one of the custard cups forming "bowls". Distribute egg mixture evenly into the tortilla bowls. Sprinkle remaining 1/2 of cheese mixture over egg mixture.
  • Step 3
    Bake uncovered 25-30 minutes, or until eggs are set. Let stand 5 minutes.
  • Step 4
    Top with salsa, sour cream and any desired toppings. Serve with seasonal fresh fruit or sliced avocado. (hint: heating tortillas in microwave for 5-10 seconds on high before brushing with butter makes them more pliable). My family absolutely loves this and the presentation is impressive!
