This dish turned out to be a lovely, light, lunch dish. It was filling and very tasty. I used sharp Cheddar cheese, and home-made creme fraiche. The appearance of the dish was eye appealing. It was easy to make. I believe next time I make this dish, I will add some New Mexico chile powder for another layer of flavor and to give it a little more of a smokey, spicy flavor. Thanks for sharing this lovely chile dish.

I really wanted to make some Chiles Rellenos for ZW3 and this is the closest thing I could find. Am I glad I did! This was fantastic. I did add a bit of chili powder into the filling mixture and I didn't have farmers cheese so I used a Mexican 4-cheese blend- not the kind with the seasoning. Thanks again.
