Chile Relleno Casserole













I made the best casserole last night! It was super easy and I can't wait to make it again! We (Keith) almost ate the whole thing last night. I cut the recipe in half because I was only making it for 2 people. Keith ate his with a tortilla.


(This isn't my casserole, but it looked like that)

Here is the recipe:

1 lb. ground beef
1/2 c. chopped onion
1/4 tsp. pepper
2 (4 oz.) cans green chilies, cut in half and seeded
1 1/2 c. shredded Cheddar cheese, sharp
1 1/2 c. milk
1/4 tsp. bottled hot pepper sauce (optional)
1/4 c. all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp. salt
4 eggs, beaten

Brown beef and onion in pan; drain off fat. Sprinkle meat with salt and pepper. Place half the chilies in a 10 x 6 1/2 inch baking dish; sprinkle with cheese and top with meat mixture. Arrange remaining chilies over meat. Mix flour and salt in bowl. Combine eggs, milk and hot sauce; add egg mixture to flour gradually, beating until smooth. Pour mixture over meat/chili mixture already in the pan. Bake in preheated 350 degree oven for 45-50 minutes or until knife inserted just off center comes out clean. Let cool 5 to 10 minutes. Serves 6.

Bravo!


So, two posts in one day. Is this a record?

I just came to realize something you may have already known. I am a Bravo TV whore. I don't think there is one show on there that I don't watch.

It's sad. Disgusting. Gotta get your drama somewhere!

You never know...

As I was driving to work this morning I was getting pissed at the big ass car in front of me going 20 below the speed limit. Don't they know I gotta get to work?! Then a remembered a really great life lesson I learned a few months ago. You never know.

You never know what that person is going through... Maybe someone close to them just got diagnosed with cancer. Maybe it was them. Maybe they are having an awful day. Maybe they are taking their time because they don't want to get to where they are going.

This is so important for me to remember because I am always in a rush, trying to be early, get it done quicker, first. Slow down. Take a deep breath. You never know!
