Hi!

I know this is not chili rellenos exactly but it is somewhat similar and very low carb and also very tasty!!

My DH and I have made this meal quite a bit since starting this low carb WOE!

Poblano Peppers Stuffed with Eggs and Smothered in Chihuahua Cheese Sauce

4 poblano peppers
1 1/2 C. cream
1 C. shredded chihuahua cheese (or other mexican cheese)
2 TBSP butter
6 eggs, lightly beaten
cooked and crumbled bacon, if desired


1. Take poblano peppers and char them in the broiler or over a flame until black all over. Put in paper bag and let cool slightly. While peppers are cooling start the cheese sauce by bringing cream to a boil. Stir in shredded cheese continously until throughly mixed. Let boil for 5 minutes.

2. While boiling, peel skin from peppers and turn heat on sauce to low. Cut a slit in the chilies and seed them.

3. Lastly, add butter to frying pan and add eggs. Scramble to your liking. Add crumbled bacon if you desire. Spoon eggs into peppers and spoon cheese sauce over.

Delicious!
