Green Chile Squares (Paula Deen)
"My husband was in the kitchen last weekend and watched Paula Deen make this recipe. Since we had all the ingredients on hand he made it for us that night, scaling it down to 2/3. We both liked it a lot and also enjoyed it for lunch the next day."

This had nice flavor but way too much cayenne pepper flavor for us. Hot! It was easy to make and looked great. If you like a kick this is for you. Thanks for posting. Made for newest Zaar Tag Jan/Feb 2012. Enjoy. ChefDLH
