I used russets because that’s what I have and left the skins on, we like the rustic texture. I’m sure I used more than 4 ounces of green chiles, they had a nice kick. Love Young Guns ready green chiles. I finished off in a casserole dish with extra cheese as mentioned in the directions. Great for make ahead. Easy and I’ll make again. I served them with the EASY, INEXPENSIVE LENTIL TACOS that are posted here. Great meal.
