Lazy Chile Rellenos

I made Lazy Chile Rellenos for dinner last night, even though they are suited better for breakfast.  I had them again for breakfast this morning and it was the perfect way to start my day.  If you have a picky eater in the house, like my husband who won't eat peppers, half the recipe so you don't have so much left over.  Here's it is:

Ingredients

8 whole peeled green chiles (I get mine at WalMart in a can)

1-1/2 cups Montery Jack cheese, grated (more as needed)

5 eggs

2 cups whole milk

salt and pepper to taste

1/2 tsp. paprika

1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper

Preheat oven to 325 degrees.  Mix together eggs, milk, salt, pepper, paprika and cayenne.

Cut chilies in half and remove the seeds.  Add a single layer of chilies on the bottom of a 9 x 13-inch baking dish.Top chilies with half the grated cheese. Repeat with another layer of chilies and another layer of cheese.

Pour egg mixture all over the top.  Place into a larger baking dish or rimmed baking sheet. Pour in 1/2 inch of water and bake for 35 to 45 minutes, or until completely set.

Cut into squares and serve with warm corn tortillas!
