Ready In: 50 mins
Serves: 2-3
Ingredients
- 6 anaheim chilies
- monterey jack cheese
- salsa
- 1 (10 1/2ounce) can pasta sauce or 1 (10 1/2ounce) can enchilada sauce
- 1 lb hamburger
- 1 (16 ounce) can refried beans
- 2 eggs, separated
Directions
- Put small T at top of each pepper just below the stem to keep it from exploding.
- To skin peppers - cook at 500° for about 15 to 20 minutes, turning every 5 minutes. They will be blistered and dark in spots.
- Seal peppers in plastic freezer bag for about 10 to 15 minutes to finish steaming the skin. Using the T you cut at the top, use a spoon to pull out the seeds and then peel the pepper. Seeding is much easier if you do it before peeling the pepper. Don't worry if they tear too much!
- Brown hamburger, add about 1/4 cup salsa and 1/4 cup red sauce. Place this on bottom of 2 qt casserole dish.
- Mix about 1/4 cup salsa and 1/4 cup red sauce with refried beans and layer on top of hamburger mixture.
- Insert large hunks of Monterey Jack cheese inside pepper cavity and lay them on top of the bean mixture.
- Beat egg whites until stiff, beat yolks some and fold into egg whites. Spoon on top of peppers and top with any shredded cheese.
- Bake at 350 for about 20 – 25 minutes - egg topping will be golden brown.
