Chili Relleno Casserole

We have had this dish every Christmas morning for as long as I can remember.

1 1/2 lbs grated cheese, cheddar and jack
2 small cans of diced green chili peppers (for extra kick, use 1 can ortegas, 1 can chopped jalapenos)
4 eggs
2 Tbs flour
1/2 t salt
1 can evaporated milk

Spray a casserole dish with Pam. Line with a layer of peppers. Cover with cheese and top with another layer of peppers and cheese.

Beat eggs, flour, salt and milk until smooth. Pour over cheese & peppers.
Bake at 350 for about 45 min. It will be custard consistency.

I served this a couple of weeks ago at a dinner we had for my dad, uncle and their sweethearts. Our daughter and grandbaby Jenna were also there. After we ate, Jenna asked if I would fix it for her birthday because she loved it so much! I had to laugh since her birthday isn't until November! Guess she likes to plan ahead.
