I make something quite similar to this (http://www.food.com/recipe/chili-cheese-souffle-rellenos-al-reves-390051), that I serve either as an entree or as an hors d'oeuvre. My version makes a significantly larger quantity; however, this is perfect as a 4-person entree -- or in our case, 2 people over 2 nights! Wonderful flavor, especially when topped with an interesting salsa! Thanks for posting. By the way, works fine with low-fat cottage cheese, if you want to cut a few calories.

You did it again, Nimz, another great dish. It reminds me of Huevo Rancheros. The Rotel/green chilies really gives the dish a nice kick and makes this so special compared to other breakfast dishes. I loved how easy it is to prepare too. I'm putting a copy of it in our motorhome as it will be VERY convenient to make while traveling. Good job, Nimz!

I was one of the original members of Recipezaar that was truly a community of individuals that enjoyed each other in forums and chat rooms. I've been a member of this site since 2003. Made some tremendous friends that I still think of often. I'll continue coming here because my recipes are here and so many more that I tried over the years as a member. It's just a tad boring now and just another recipe site like all the rest. Sad.
