Easy Chili Rellenos Casserole image

This recipe is from The Winchester Star newspaper, Winchester, Virginia, from about 1995. This dish has the flavors of chili rellenos, without trouble of stuffing, dipping in batter, and frying, and a lot less fat! It's great as a side dish with tacos or mexican chicken. I have served it cut in 1" squares as an appetizer at a party, and it was a hit! I often double it, bake in a 9 X 13 pan, and take to covered dish suppers. If you wish to use fresh chilis, use 3 large mild banana peppers or anaheim chilis, roasted, peeled and seeded.
