This is one of the first recipes I ever learned how to make. I loved Chilies Rellenos, but being a new cook, the whole process of making the “real deal” was intimidating to me. I can’t remember now who gave me this recipe, but I have used it from day one and continue to use it today. It’s super easy and you get the flavor of the Chilies Rellenos without all the “work”. It’s also one of my most shared recipes! I hope your family enjoys it as much as mine!

Oh my goodness, this looks and sounds delicious! I'm with you on the whole process being intimidating to make the traditional ones, but this I will definitely try. Thanks so much for linking up to Creative Thursday this week. I can't wait to see what you link up next week. Have a wonderful weekend.

Thanks for stopping by Michelle! This is super easy compared to "real" Chilies Rellenos! Now that I have a lot more experience in the kitchen, the real dish may not be as intimidating 😉 Looking forward to your party this coming week!
I love chile rellenos. There are no good Mexican restaurants where I live so I'm in withdrawal. I might have to try this out. I'd love it if you stopped by my link party. http://acraftycook.blogspot.com/2012/05/1-month-of-fun-may-link-party.html

Rellenos on the Fly! Love it!
I love green chili's, I have to try this recipe.
I tried this recipe for the first time tonight. It was awesome and loved by all (including my egg-ambivalent son). I added a bit of flavored ground beef and served it with fresh tortillas, chips and salsa. Thanks for such an easy recipe! I'm blogging about my results for my Spring Cleaning Recipe Challenge.
