Chile Relleno Casserole

An easy casserole to put together for a quick flavorful dinner. Cheese filled green chilies in a fluffy egg mixture, spicy, cheesy goodness!

2 (10 oz) cans whole green chilies
6 oz Monterey Jack cheese, cut into strips
8 eggs
2/3 cup milk
1 cup flour
1 tsp baking powder
1½ cups cheddar cheese, shredded

Preheat oven to 350º. Spray a 9″x13″ baking dish with nonstick spray. Drain cans of green chilies. Insert a strip of cheese into each whole chili. Place in baking dish. When all chilies have been filled with cheese and are in the baking dish, whisk together eggs, milk, flour and baking powder in a bowl. Beat until thoroughly combined and smooth. Pour egg mixture over chilies and sprinkle cheddar cheese evenly over top of egg mixture. Bake for 30-35 minutes until egg is puffy, cheese is bubbly, and center is set. Let sit for 5 minutes, slice into squares and serve with salsa and sour cream if desired.
