"I got this from Calling all Cooks on the Food Network, courtsey of Cynthia Garcia. This is an awesome recipe. So good. I think it is intended to be a meal in itself, but I use as a side dish. Serving size listed is as a side dish not main meal."

Wow! Deliciosa! I made these for breakfast on corn tortillas and loved them! I left the poblanos in a plastic bag for 15 minutes with no towel and the skins peeled/slid right off. I did substitute EVOO for corn oil because I had it on hand and Greek Yogurt for the sour cream. I'm going to cut some grilled chicken from last night into strips and eat Rajas con Queso in the tortilla with it. Muchas Gracias!

I made this to take to a superbowl party. It was very well received and several of the people really liked it. It is different and has a good taste. Thanks
