Baked Chili Relleno

Chef #379453's Note:

This is so quick and easy! No more hard to make Chili Relleno for me! This is the only way to go ! I chop up fresh onions, tomatoes, bell peppers and mix with some Cilantro (Gourmet Garden Herb Blend) and Salsa Verde ( 7 ounce can Herdez, sold with the Mexican products in the grocery) to top each serving and serve with chips.
