Chiles are a must where I live. I find they almost always improve a recipe that uses cheese. Sometimes I make this into a heartier main dish by adding shredded cooked chicken after the chile layer. It really tastes good! —Irene Martin, Portales, New Mexico

Ingredients

  • 1 can (7 ounces) whole green chiles
  • 2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 3 large eggs
  • 3 cups whole milk
  • 1 cup biscuit/baking mix
  • Seasoned salt to taste
