Chilles Rellenos Breakfast Casserole

This morning I was mulling over what to have for breakfast. A crappy bagel? Another boring ass egg sandwich? Mexican lasagna? Damn! I started cursing my kitchen for having the worst breakfast options ever. While I was kicking the dishwasher, it hit me; I have leftover poblano peppers I need to use and I also have an assload of cheese. Time to make a fucking chilies rellenos breakfast casserole, bitches! Let's begin:

Roast, peel, and gut four poblano peppers. If you have not been paying attention (I know you have not been, slacker) click here to find out how to perform this task. Roll up chunks of cheddar in your peppers and place them in a single layer in a deep casserole dish. You know it is deep because it makes stupid comments like "the universe is one giant wavelength and we are all just reverberations so surfs up, Bodie."

Whisk up five eggs with some cold water and pour over your stuffed peppers. Top with a crapload of grated cheddar cheese. Place in a 350 deg oven, uncovered. After fifteen minutes cover it with aluminum foil and cook for another 25-30 min.

And there you have it. Another masterpiece from an empty kitchen. You probably would have settled for the bagel, loser. Eat it.

The good or the bad cholesterol?

I made this Sunday morning. It was good, and it allowed me to break out the torch. I changed it a little because I got drunk saturday and forgot to get some cheddar. I had some but not enough. I did have some goat cheese though (Montchevre) and I used that to stuff the poblanos. I also added a little cumin to the eggs. Topped with salsa and a little sour cream. I got a good breakfast and ended up getting some morning sex. I don't know if it was from the breakfast, but I do know I'm going to make it again to find out.

That goat cheese sounds good. Good to hear you got some action!

I'm making this on Sunday. It looks fantastic.

One question, why do you add water to your eggs? Just curious.

Water fluffs them up. Also try using sour cream. Milk sucks.
