Chili Rellenos Casserole

A delicious lower fat dish of green chilies filled with melted Monterrey Jack Cheese baked in an egg souffle'. If you don't mind the extra fat you can use full fat cheese, and eggs in lieu of low fat cheese and egg substitute.

3 cans (4oz.) whole green chilies, drained
4 oz. reduced fat Monterrey Jack cheese
1 1/4 cup egg substitute
1/2 cup flower
1/2 cup skim milk
1/2 cup reduced-fat cheddar cheese, shredded
1 tsp chili powder
2 green onions
1 can enchilada sauce or 1/2 cup salsa

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

2. Lightly coat and 11'' x 7'' baking dish with cooking spray

3. lay whole green chilies out on a paper towel. Slice Monterrey Jack cheese into the same number of pieces as there are chilies. Insert a slice of cheese inside each chili and arrange evenly in baking dish.

4. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together egg substitute, flour, and milk. Pour egg mixture over chilies in baking dish.

5. Layer shredded cheese on top of casserole, then sprinkle with chili powder and green onion.

6. Bake for 35 minutes or until top is golden brown and toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. (if the toothpick does not come out clean, that means the casserole is not yet cooked through. Give it a few minutes, and then test again.)

7. Cut into servings and top with salsa, or enchilada sauce. Serve and enjoy!
