Chiles Rellenos Casserole
"I adopted this from the Recipezaar account. It was good as is, but I had to make a couple changes for it to work for me. Came out a little runny (maybe because I used skim milk), so may need some additional adjustment. I would probably change out the mozzarella for Monterey jack or a Mexican cheese next time also. Good served with sour cream."

I admit I did make some changes. I used 1/2 cheddar 1/2 Monterrey jack, I also used a 12 oz can of evaporated milk, cut the eggs down to two and only used 2 Tbsp.of flour. For the topping I didn't have green so I used red. It was absolutely delicious, despite my changes! Thanks Flower, for posting! Made for Spring PAC 2013

I have a degree in archaeology from a small Ohio college and I work for the Ohio History Connection. My passions are art, music, books, food, history, and cats/animal welfare. I also love photography. I have a 1,000 (plus) piece collection of vintage flower pins from the 1960's, hence the username ha. I also have small collections of vintage butterfly pins, vintage tablecloths, and vintage glass Christmas ornaments. (Can you tell I love vintage?) I took a trip to the Netherlands in March 2006 and fell in love! I doubt it will happen but if I ever have the opportunity I would love to live there.
